Made more alone; walked out of body, Flew off the ground; hit the clouds, Blasted through the mountains, Burnt into ashes; destroyed in oblivion. Bled to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Simply because there is no road, does not mean that the journey stops. Perhaps, after the meandering journey of our lives, all of us do reach an end. But, as someone had said, &#8220;at the end it is the journey that matters the most.&#8221; Occasions remind us of the end &#8212; birthday, anniversary, new year [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The next best thing to death is sleep. The debutant said:
“Believe it is true, believe it blindfolded,
Do not ask for explanations.”
‘Coz the answer had been repentant since repeated eternities.

The colours perceived through the kaleidoscope of time
Manipulate the perception of soundings,
Scribbled to estimate the depth of the mantling lake.]]></description>

Ma said that rats would come one day, take my teeth and give back stronger and sharper ones. “Ma, when will the rats come? It pains!” Ma was not there to hear me. Nobody [...]]]></description>

And if you too think that I need a physical fitness program, let me tell you that I get enough by beating around the bush, by jumping to conclusions, by going round in circles and by running down [...]]]></description>

Nor do I see any planet, moon, cloud, neither any comet.

What I see are faces.

Faces, looking down at me, speaking to me and calling me…
Every face forms a star; and every star — a face.]]></description>

But cursed be life For the birth of such superfluous emotions, Full of redemptions, Spanning beyond the reach Of the tattered and the scattered Grains of torrential curse. Here, reasons never win, When attachments feel [...]]]></description>
