Today has been a stormy day. The hurricane level winds blow outside, penetrating through brick. I've visited a hospital unexpectedly due to a loved one. Nothing serious. Now, I near the end of this day feeling like I haven't achieved much. My voice still lies stifled within me somewhere. Though my mind is racing - [...]

NaBloPoMo #16 – Surrogate #15
A melancholic sadness, A softly, softley wide awakening, Eyes open, Iris' flex, Soaking it all in, blurring filled with internal rain. Thunderous. Shaking uncontrollably as we meet, As we sit, speak, meet, disagree. Cut deep and hurt, seemingly eternally. A life is a life, Flows from low to highs. The world is shattered and shredded [...]
NaBloPoMo #16 – Why no #12- #14
So... I was a bad unproductive person. Online that is. For the last 4 nights. There is no excuse big enough for dropping out, because as someone says "If something is important enough you make time for it!" . Therefore, I guess, using that logic I deemed me, my online persona/career-building and my writing less [...]
#NaBloPoMo #10: Keep Going – What is this? Poetry.
Before I begin, I should clarify the "missed day thing" - not just because I want to be a "good girl" and not loose any points .. but seriously back away from the points. Anyway for as long as I remember I've worked on a biological farmers clock. Maybe it has something to do with [...]
#NaBloPoMo #9: MA Thesis Idea #1
I thought I would share the more academic way, in an attempt to get these thoughts that occur to me. Thoughts surrounding the world we live in from a cultural and sociological viewpoint. I also hope that by doing this I add extra fuel to the fires within me. Fires which at times seem to [...]
#NaBloPoMo #8: The Precipice that could Swallow this Crow.
Waiting for the day when nothing else remains. When all that we have and were will refuse to remain, The day that I cease to torment us with this simmering hate, The day you again love what I -What WE can create, The time that can be dedicated to ourselves and not, When love is [...]
#NaBloPoMo #7: Masculinity
For making Saag Paranthas when mum got sectioned, For letting my small legs dance and showering us with affection, For the long walks to get us out of the house, For helping us all get rid of that pesky mouse, For doing the world of a couple alone, For keeping everything light and together at [...]
NaBlaPoMo #6 Bitches be Ruthless!
Crazy day conversing with all manners of people. From dearest loved ones to virtual unknowns and ghosts of long forgotten past. I realised, as the great Bitch Tina Fey might say : Bitches Rule! We need to stick together and be more direct. I am a strong woman. I am a feminist. Yeah shit happened, [...]
NaBloPoMo #5 “Life Happened” and Prayer
I hope this post still counts as day 5 of #NaBloPoMo , "Life happened", which I think will soon ebcome an overused and often occurring phrase to describe that feeling of knowing what you have to do, making time for it or rather thinking you have. Then things inevitably lead to things. Feelings bury other [...]
A short couplet.
From the moment I was discovering myself, I was uncovering somebody else. My brother for my other-mother. Two separate phrases that popped into my head. First one was on Monday 2nd Nov at 11:30pm at night. The second is a phrase that I happily chanted and felt so passionately earlier today at around 12:30pm. [...]
