Yesterday, I passed through an electrical storm.

On rainy days, we'd go swimming out
On rainy days, swimming in the sound
On rainy days, we'd go swimming out


Sometimes, summer days transform. They modify their own place in the Timeline of Seasons to become a different one altogether; such a season might not even exist except in the warm evenings of late autumn, and the chill of the new monsoon sunrise.
Something like a symbol, like the Harvest moon, and the breathless wakening in a cool air-conditioned room.


Yesterday, I went out in the sun. It was supposed to be a ruffling, panting experience, instead of the commonplace "outing", per se.
A graciously obliging wind suddenly passed by my face and I passed on onto higher realms.

As I was coming back, I brought with me a bar of dark chocolate. Its contours smoothening my rough hand as it placed a bit of it within my palm through the rickety rickshaw ride.
And, it was not the only thing that was lifting my spirits. The idea of the wintry chill inside my room, and the privacy for me was enough.
It's highly likely that my hands writhed with the excitement. It had been some time since I had dark chocolate, and my lips ached for a taste of it.

Once inside the house, it was an Electrical Storm. Something exploded in me, and it was all a blur. It's not "sinful" or "sensuous" as everyone keeps telling you, Wanderer.
It's almost as if a dominatrix comes to life within the bar, a mistress, a lover and a woman suddenly appears from nowhere, and then she kisses your lips with her mouth commanding and demanding power and your stomach says no to too much of it. Yet... yet, and yet, your lips love it, your tongue searches for it and your brain adores it.

Sometimes, electrical storms happen while the season is not quite built for it.

Tomorrow

"Every instant of time is a pinprick of eternity."
~ Marcus Aurelius, AD 121-80: Meditations


He knows it is imminent.
As he plays with nothingness,
He knows it is coming...

He looks around for a book to read,
Or a pen or a paper, his hands to be buried.
{He knows it is imminent!}

His eyes dart to the floor
His arduous pleas would steel thereafter, [by the door];
He knows it is coming.

And yet, he fancies;
He is so nervous he could break a wall.
He knows it is imminent.
He knows it is coming.

Famished and thirsty.

There was this almost, but not quite unlike Celtic tune I heard on Sunday, over the cellphone on a street, while trying to find my bearings. I was tired and sweating, yet the synthesizer's tune compelled me to stay on and hear the whole song while pushing my legs to a known place, to go home.

It took me some time to find out, though. And I was terribly confused. Confused at where I was. It looked familiar. I had known of this place, the shops had addresses written on them. I was still listening to the tune, and I couldn't tell the player to stop. The song blossomed, as I tried slowing it in my head and understanding the chords and the notes. Faster and now slower.

It seemed miraculous, almost. Here I was, out from a tiring exam, and I was listening to a new tune that I had never listened to before. Something that always seemed to be at the tip of my fingers as I sat with my synthesizer, but not quite what came out. And then, I realised that everything suddenly vanished.

I was staring at three weeks of torture, and abruptly the fabric of Time, ruptured. The beautiful song filled mine ears and left them with enough.
When Music hits you, it does so in an unimaginably wild manner.
I was actually smiling weirdly while I looked for an auto-rickshaw.

I am not a composer, but sometimes you don't need to understand music to know it. I am but a learner.
I am just a bit tired, and I cannot wait for the fifth of May.

A gift.

Slowly; slowly. I'd like to see the rain fall down slowly.
Calmly; slowly. I'd like to see the years float down calmly.
Sweetly; slowly. I'd like to hear the words fall upon me, sweetly.
Keenly; slowly. I'd like to hear the music float upon me, keenly.

Greedily. I'd like to hold onto, greedily.
Hardly. I'd like to leave - hardly.
Wistfully. I'd want to wish wistfully.

*Drizzle*
*Drizzle*
*Thunder*
*Thunder
*Rain*
*Rain*
