It might be a prudent realisation that one can decide not to read the extraneous thoughts appearing in a string of sentences. Eyes have to adjust to the lengthy pointless meandering, then the mind will have to deal with the exaggerations and tiredness of a language. One can only become adept at a simple translation of a complex metaphor. When thoughts arise, they come with … Continue reading Realisation
I do not know if criticisms work, whether it is ‘constructive criticism’ or ‘destructive criticism’. Criticisms are here to stay and even gets more sophisticatedly vicious.

Unfortunately, criticisms have been out of a mala … Continue reading Comparing Criticisms
The letters may have been re-written, Constructed from the deconstructed realities- Of dogmatism, that has been given wings, Prepared from arcane alphabets, Stolen perspectives cordon off the premise; Structured on a foundation of lies, Visions bowed before coercion, Many empty rooms echo but are unheard, While crowded ones are bustling futility.

Leaving incoherent comments such as- ‘Indeed’, ‘Wow’, ‘Fabulous’, ‘I See’, or even going further to comment with various ‘Emojis’ (without a word before or after that) do not express any complete meaning and I have a serious inability in processing such frivolities or engaging with incomplete thoughts. I am no mind-reader, so those comments vanish into the world of oblivion as they do not add … Continue reading Monosyllables and Other Conversations
When I get weary of words I still compose narratives, in silence Wonder, who will have the patience to listen Interpret the intense storytelling through my eyes There are barriers for who cannot comprehend My storytelling continues for the ardent listener One who is content to listen carefully to the silence Communicating my innermost thoughts They reverberate with clarity in my heart Sometimes, the words … Continue reading Storytelling without Words
