The lights lining the bar counter were waltzing into and away from each other in a macabre frenzy. Her eyes were running after them, now so close yet so painfully far. Every time she blinked, they c Read More...

The day shall pass, as they sound the bugles of brass.

Where days are longer
And nights are just right
Where school books get replaced
With tales of fiction and delight
And she goes home, a home like no other
No limit on treats, one after another.
Palms and coconuts, ducks and chickens
Ice-cream and lemonade, cuddles of grandmother
The scorching sun s Read More...

My fossil showed 11.20, and the streets were vacuous for a Saturday morning. Generally the souk area would be bustling with hawkers and commoners, trying their luck at basic business tactics.

Is it just me or my heart that beats?
That no longer wants to walk on the lonely streets.
Or is that your charm that I cannot resist,
Or your will to find the lost me in the midst.
Maybe it’s your eyes full of fire,
Or maybe it’s your words that dare me to desire.
It must be the fun tha Read More...

Yet, they confined her.
So did the system.
She was up against four.

But, so did she.
She was ki Read More...
