.falling in.

2012-02-12T16:19:00.000+05:30

She thinks deep, dreams steep.

The peace-scars on her skin creep.

When her words shine, worlds spin.

And ink-black skies start falling in.

watch me on tumblr now!

.the obscure sorrows of fighting or finding.

2012-01-31T15:36:00.001+05:30

Often, when in double minds- breathing words to halt a cry-

You fight a star to curb a flight,

Dim the lights to look for bright.

But slowly, when your dismal day, glows, and then comes ablaze-

You stare into the barren hour,

Lose your mind, and chase your star.

[That flight you took, just then, just then.

Tells me, you won’t fall again.]

.another's words.

उस ओर

बंद डब्बों में क्या पड़ा है,
कौन जानता है,
उस ओर कौन खड़ा है,
कौन जानता है,

क्या पता हम सहीं हैं
या हैं गलत |
क्या पता आगे गली है
या है सरहद |
धड़कन है इन शब्दों में
कि वो भी लापता हैं,
या इन चुप रातों में,
वो भी खुशनुमा हैं |

बस ज़िन्दगी समेट
ये बंदा आगे बढा है,
क्या पता उस ओर
कौन खड़ा है |

[for the first time, here is something that did not come out of me]

Krati Tandon can easily be termed the ideal friend in many ways.

And this once, her poetry seemed to fit in perfectly with my situation. Enjoy. :)

.paperglass arachnid. [no reason why]

2012-01-15T18:53:00.002+05:30

No cause for snow, or light, or sky,

none for this, no reason why.

No reason it was you and I.

None for this. no reason why.

Unprecedented, impinging, crass,

alien threads of thought-

to find the things you haven't had,

rid of what you've got.

Lose your shame, dry your mouth.

No drooling over dust.

Break your bones to sounds of joy

Cling to chains of rust.

2011-12-08T11:26:00.005+05:30

So I decided to get started with myself.

Visiting cards might be the smallest and easiest step. So here they are :)

And, really soon, I am going to have these ready in bulk. Wish me luck!

a dozen worlds that filled the void.

.monsters in her head.

2011-11-25T11:01:00.000+05:30

A hundred hours with the vain, the talkative and the dead-

In the end,

It was just her-

with monsters in her head.

.The Facebook. [finally]

2011-11-15T10:46:00.002+05:30

We now have an all new facebook page :)

Do check it out-it's still getting there-catching up for lost time-but appreciation will be appreciated :)

Also, above are four 4 x 4 inches tiles each picture, at least an year apart from the other. All taken with little or no thought. but I get a feeling of nostalgia now that they seem to fit in so well together.

Lucky for my wall, these tiles had nowhere else to go :P

.Metanoia.

2011-11-10T13:22:00.003+05:30

Gloom and grief have unseen powers.

.the tobacco twin.

If frozen clouds of cancer wind

floated through this cavern grey,

and found us, waiting for each other

drunken on a pensive day-

I would take them into me

'cause, love- there is no other way.

.the first bidding call.

2011-10-29T15:47:00.000+05:30

Hello everyone! so I found these frames from a college project, they've been lying around for some time now. And I was thinking it'd be a good idea to give them away!

I would obviously like to keep the basic making charges, but it wouldnt hurt to make some money-so we'll just turn this into a bid :D whoever asks for the highest price before a month gets it. And it might be a good catch for you, if noone... has quoted high enough till then :P

There are 5 frames in all, and each 10 by 14 inches. call me if youre interested, this is going to be hard typing out. :P

the pictures inside can be found here:

.Lying Low.

2011-10-11T11:59:00.001+05:30

Truckloads of thanks to everyone that has been coming back to this page.

But it's time for some lying low now.

New, and strange things are taking shape

and I would love to tell you all about them.

..but not just yet.

have a good time and wish me luck :)

.more selling.

2011-09-07T22:06:00.000+05:30

Tonight, my timescape glows.

My oceans calm. An ice-wind blows.

Strong as thoughts, my stars rain down.

My three-inch palm can bear this town.

All eyes wonder, Allies wonder-

What makes your life so small, so strong?

Songs like thunder, Love like hunger.

What makes you live by right, and wrong?

2011-09-03T15:18:00.003+05:30

Abhorred for its fantasy love

condemned for its plastic trees

cursed for the psuedo-twins it makes of its people

It stinks of loss, struggle, humiliation

and of the 21 million that are here to win it over.

But that,
is what we already know.

.blackbird song.

2011-09-01T01:12:00.001+05:30

Times like now, blackbirds soar

Times like these that last no more

than a one word song

a shortened long

Times like these

can feel so wrong.
