Sleep Utopia

As each day ends, I wish I could dive into my chaos energetically rather than drowning pathetically and then watch the movement of water that overpowers me transferring a portion of its energy as our sweet little deal followed by taking a stand against the welcoming winds under the bed of stars preferably boarding over a gently swaying boat that sails over an ambient oceanscape as a lonesome point that is lost in this vast universe born only to find all beauty in the vanishing ripples that reflect the milky white planetoid pumpkin which has mood swings that do not match with mine and afterwards slowly slip into the arms of sleep right in the shimmering open arbour that remains unbarred while listening to the magical stories of umpteen galaxies that hang over and the mellifluous voice of surrounding waves that kiss me good night one by one until that philander with bright dancing rays barges in on my pleasant utopian or sometimes wild dreams forcing me to open my eyes after bulldozing all fantasies written and directed by Nox.

waft of swishy wind
fluffy curls of wispy clouds

rushes on the sky canvas
only to obliterate

Midnight Graffiti

hypnotic beauty
feeds my hunger in dark dome
one cold winter night
pulling me to a new world
immersed in her wilderness

Quote Of The Week

Inner Beauty

“You are often dirty, and not neatly dressed. I wonder if you have ever taken a shower.

With full hopes, I approach. You greatly disappoint me. However, on a casual meet without any plans, you don’t fail to surprise.

You act so cold to the outsiders, but also beckon them by and large. I’m unable to make up my mind about your personality. Should I always keep my expectations low around you?

Beauty and Beast

With beauty and beast,
an architect battles.

Rising to heights, there's beauty;
the cloud covers of the ether.

Plunging to bottom, there's beast mode;
the ceaseless crowds of busy humans.
