Zindagi

Zindagi jab bhi
teray bazm may
laati hey hamay,
Ye zamee.n chand say
behettar
nazar aati hey hamay.
- part of a ghazal (poem) in Urdu from an old Indian Movie (Bazaar?)
My loose translation:
Whenever life brings me in your company,
This land looks better than the moon to me.

HYpothetical DIlemma

What do you do if you're in love with a Sufi,
- an unattached, distant, stanger,
with his mind, spiritual drive, words, poetry...
Knowing that he is incapable of feeling the same way,
lest he ever does,
he will no longer be who he is,
thus, no longer your object of affection...?

Rising, In Love

He is regretful of his past
Convenient and complicated
Tastes of emotion.
He is immune to failure.
Others' weaknesses make him stronger,
colder.

Somewhere in the midst of his seasons
She is precisely in love.
She knows
Of icy-cold
brittle and weak
lost causes
And looks only, eagerly, to the future.
Shuts her eyes to focus,
Let effort sleep and fate run its cozy course
While her soul pursues
A higher goal

In tranquility.

On my mind...

Today, ahem...I mean yesterday was a busy day,
karahi gosht
Deed's portrait
sad, sad ending of a strange, strange friendship
Doing the right thing, however difficult, lifts the burden of guilt forever.
Catching-up w/email can be very satisfying
time spent reading email = $$
time spent replying = $$$
coffee to help endure sleepless nights = $$$$
Nostalgia and hearing from old friends = priceless

Explosions

I feel
a dose of frustration
running
in my veins.

Simple beginnings

"I can't get no satisfaction...yeah, yeah, yeah...no, no, no.
I can't get no satisfaction...n i try, n i try, n i try."

So, this is my first attempt at blogging after wanting to do so for a long time. I already feel accomplished.
