Love thy Enemy.

Tristania and Edgar Allan Poe do a lot of things to you.


Shadows fall upon my arms-
Through winter night;
With crimson vanguards pouring-
From you...

I break thy sheltered bones across-!
Arcing Silver;
Passing through sirene expanse-
Thy Crystal vase.

A walk across the hinterland.
Perhaps moonshine would wash away
All the cruent and the black
Wanton fingers buried within...
They tristan vale.

Of astronomy, college and other random madness[es]

So, after what seems like a decadent decade, I am BACK on Blogger. I hope you children have been checking out my Tumblr often, since I update there more than anywhere else. But, as I promised, I shan't leave this Fealdamar untended. And so here I am, back with a full-featured post.


So in accordance with the International Year of Astronomy 2009, Dr. Debiprasad Duari gave quite the lecture in the college premesis. Although it did start of with the most dull of all introductory speeches, (courtesy dear old HPM, HoD Physics dept.) it started off with a bang with the jam-packed auditorium abuzz with interested chatter when Dr. Duari's credentials were spelled out.
Once Dr. Duari started off, though, the silence was palpable, and his jovial and friendly voice and powerful and commanding speech mesmerised us all. As he took us on a journey from Galileo of Galilei to the Chandrayaan II future mission, we were enthralled.

Everytime he mentioned something I knew, my chest swelled I tell you. Amazing and breathtaking was all I could call this seminar. Two thumbs up!
