			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin:0;" align="center"><strong><span style="color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size:small;">What is Prozzitry</span></span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin:0;" align="center"><strong><span style="color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size:small;"></span></span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">When you pick this book up and sit down to read you will wonder as to what this Prozzitry is supposed to be. This question will, of course, be answered by the pieces as you read and reflect on them, however, still you would have liked the author to have said something that offers some form of definition of the genre of writing, which I am calling Prozzitry, that will help you enjoy it better. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Prozzitry is a new genre of writing that I started writing while at university studying literature. I wrote a lot of these, initially calling them, The Blue Songs of Solitude where an author always resides listening in and out. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">I never thought and still do not do, that writing or art is a so called ‘democratic’ thing. Here the author must always be on his own for he does not live in dormitories of communities rather lives in his own loneliness, his own solitude even when in and among people and their festivities, fiestas and fetes. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Writing takes place, the most fundamental part of it, in this solitude and this must always be the ocean on whose shore the author must always take a walk and listen out. An author, a poet is a living iceberg most of which stays outside the public domain spread and spreading deeper and wider receiving the beats, pulses and rhythms of life’s continual elaboration and there the connections are formed, branches and leaves are spread and roots and antennas are directed deeper, wider, broader as far as possible so that he can come up with something to offer. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">This living, thus, is a business of singing the soul of solitude and one must not complain about it. When one is sitting at a vacant theatre wishing to listen to the orchestra of silence played out over the space and on the flow of air and wind how must one then complain about this solitude!</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">The idea I was trying out was to write a genre of creative writing that tries to create an areal fiction by injecting it with a great deal of poetry, fairytale, a childlike playfulness, fantasy, myths, ample imagination and using science as a little salt and sweet to add some electromagnetism. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">In this we take the premise that holds the view that in an infinite domain of this Universe with infinite numbers of perpetually changing variables everything and anything is logically possible and the indicator for measuring statistical probabilities must thus not use a hundred but infinite! For it is logically possible for us to start a Humanity Festival in every little village, every little town, every little city on this earth, from Palestine to Edinburgh, from Boston to Redhill from Whitechurch to Alabama, from Dhaka to Shanghai, from Jerusalem to Nairobi. And thus it is probable if only we believe in its possibility first.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"><br /></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">I wrote a great deal of these in the university days which, unfortunately, got all lost a long time ago and in the process of writing a whole range of things, Prozzitries got neglected until recently when I started writing them again. And here they are in a collection.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">This is fiction and thus things are imaginary, however, like all other genres of creative imaginative fictions, there are things in these pieces which might have germinated from real life experiences but they are not by any means a reproduction of memories but a creative recrafting of them so to suit the purpose of any particular piece.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Now, one little point about the voice in the Speaker: the Speaker is a fictitious ‘I’ and it might, at times, share similar opinions or thoughts with the author, but this ‘I’ is not the Author himself. This ‘I’ is an imaginary fictitious being speaking to a fictitious imaginary reader who was expected to fit into that character and read and respond to the speaker in whatever way he or she can. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Thereby this You to whom this I is speaking is also a fictitious character that will have to be accepted by the reader who then will have to frame themselves into the shoes of the ‘You’ to whom the I is speaking to and these two now form the theatre of this play which often is a monologue. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Here the Speaker becomes an invisible voice when the reader reads the piece <span> </span>and by doing so almost forces the Speaker to become the ‘You’ by forcing you to become ‘him’ or ‘her’!</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Thus this fiction is to force the reader to get out of themselves and experience these realities and their unfoldings in territories and terminologies that are not their everyday domain. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">This fiction is not meant to be sweet and chatty but serious and deep and meant to take you to places where you would normally not venture out. This is not the fiction of laid back reading but an active work of imagination. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;">Whether they succeed or not is a different matter but at least this is the aim. Prozzitry denies the dictionaries of thoughts and ideas (ideonaries), words (dictionaries) and of pictures (pictionaries). </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;">A lot of people talk about clichés as if words are clichés, words are not so: thought out thoughts are, taught out ideas are, postered images are, fed and drunk in cultural dosages are and trained and crafted in ways and means of designed creativities are! </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;">Prozzitry is not any of this; at least, it tries not to be so.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;">The author hopes that this work offers you a good, active and enjoyable experience of reading: reading as gardening of thoughts, reading as ploughing the mind-land, reading as learning to play a piano or a violin of your imagination, reading as a means to liberate yourself from the comfort zones of safety, predictability and defined, designed and distilled in diction and daze hollow-gram of a pointlessness. </span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:&quot;">Reading as if you are capable of rising to risk and try touching the beauty’s exuberance and sing the delightful lights and darkness of the truth and in the process have a great uplifted spirit that soars in the areal liberate state of mind where you command the body, mind, soul and their togetherness in the spirit that tells you to sing and dance your utter and sheer humanity and celebrate its abounding expressive magnanimity.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin:0;" align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Briony Says</span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin:0;" align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">This little group of children play inside this hall in a circle on the wooden floor where the golden brown colour of the wood glistens like smiling lights on the face of a happy golden brown ocean and these children float on it with their voices falling like invisible waves. Their teacher, standing tall in her red hair and black shirt and creamy grey jeans at the middle, speaks softly. She is playing with them Simon says. Simon says: Touch your nose and immediately all the noses are arched by the fingers.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">As soon as I hear Simon says I hear Briony says! I always hear Briony says! No one thinks about Briony when they play Simon says. Well, no one even thinks about Simon either when they play Simon says! Simon does not say anything for he has never anything to say for poor Simon got robbed off his voice! </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">For how do we know what Simon says! We never ask what he is going to say! We just pretend that we know what he might say! But Simon, if we are imagining him saying, would ask us to do better things than just touch our nose or bend our knees! He could say: Get up on your feet and walk like ants and then go searching the wood! </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">He might say: Dig the earth and see what darkness is laid beneath the earth where lights never reach. He might say: Close your eyes and see whether you could still figure out the shapes of the lights or close your eyes and see whether you could let this face of the most beautiful thing you know disappear and see whether actually you could!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">He might say: Instead of staying stuck at your sofa, why not get up and go and walk outside! He might say: Instead of zombie-staying on the train or glue-stacking on the tube with silence as your staccato twin sister or on the bus dazed by unappreciated lights or wherever being dislocated, why not speak to the strangers! Why not break the wii fit and take your family and play made up cricket games where even the two year old has a stake to play!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">But we do not listen to what Simon might say let alone listen to what Briony might say. For we are all into Simon for we think Simon is Simple! Simon is simple because of our poverty, not his! If we wanted to Simon could beat Einstein or Marie Currie or Shakespeare or Monet or Mozart for that matter.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">But I will tell you what Briony might say, she would tell you about the most beautiful things you may think of but, only you cannot think of, for she comes from the land of Misticious Mythsonium where everything is possible, everything is probable and everything is as real as you make them to be. If you think a shape that has no volume or area can exist then it does! You do not believe me! Where is your mind! What shape is it? What is the area of your mind? What is the volume of it? Do you know!</span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"><br /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Now, Misticious Mythsonium is a place that produced Briony with a great great imagination that takes you places and here Briony is not your Simon, Briony is as good as it gets to a human, and she would tell you&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Let’s play Briony says!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Briony says: Imagine that the rug beneath your feet is the magic carpet and now take me somewhere!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Where are you going to take her! You do not know for she will not let you take her to the wii fit or wee computer or wii lethargico legsitlegit! Take her somewhere! Don’t dare thinking about Ibiza or Pizza Hut!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Can you? Why not!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Take her to a place where people smile as butterflies do, where people shake hands as the bees do, where people walk light like crickets do, where people know their neighbours like the pigeons do, where people know people’s names like the teachers know the names of their students.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">But you do not know any such place, do you?, for they are not on the telly or radiolly or paperelly! How do you take her to a place that you do not know!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Briony might say: What if I take you to a place where you spend hours walking and not getting tired or worried about your safety or your house being burgled or car being vandalised and people are minding their own business yet connected with an invisible muslin thread so that they are not scared and absolutely at liberty! But you would not want to go there for it is not in your neighbourhood! It is not in your country!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Briony says: Take off your hands from that cake tin! This tin is filled with cakes that are from Tesco! They are cold, they are dried and they have no aroma in them at all. They have no taste but you eat them like a machine anyway. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Briony says: Bake your own cake and I want a piece of it! But you do not have a recipe book! Briony says: So what! Why not make your own? She will even help you with one or two ideas! Oh no! You would rather have Julia Bucklebeaglebugsome’s sexy recipe book or the dvd of goddessdivaqueenofshiva showing you how to bake a cake! But tell you what Briony is not going to even touch your cake and she would not even want to play for she wants you to take part in it! You are not taking part, are you? You find her patronising! Why? Remember only arrogant people get patronised! Do not be arrogant for arrogance is the cause of all the falls that have taken place in human history! Look at the bees! How hard they are at work and how delicately, how diligently they gather the </span><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">sublime nectar from the offerings of the earth and how they carry humility in their little bodies and wings! </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Briony is what you are not. Briony is what you do not want to be. Briony is the country that you do not know. Briony is the place that you do not believe in. Briony is like Simon you half believe and half ignore!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">If Briony is the teacher in this hall she will ask the children: What is the colour you have just made up! What are you going to call it? She would have asked: What is the country you have just discovered! She would have asked: How does the galaxy look like that you have just dreamt about! She would have asked: What is the star that shines in your dreams! She would have asked: The park where you play what other animals are there that live and play there that only you can see! Briony would have said: Let’s go and try to make a shape that did not exist! Let’s go and chase up the grass or make butterfly form a balloon of floating wings or chase the colours to form a rainbow without rain!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Or better still, Briony would have got you to actually get a rainbow made of darkness, making it appear in shades and would have given you a set of alphabet and letters to write the names of these shades. She would have shown you how to go beyond Einstein’s Quantum Physics and learn how to build space crafts that can use darkness to fuel it making it light and making it possible for it to go by infinite velocity reaching anywhere in the universe in zero time! She probably would have made you make and sing a song in a language that is not your language but you have just discovered it! Briony would have got you to learn other languages to show you how beautiful they are, all of them! Briony would have shown you how beautiful these villages are on this earth like beauty spots and she would have taught you that you need not bother with passports and id cards for everyone has a name and that is good enough in this universe to your identity! Briony would have taught you how to travel and live light only carrying your eye-catches and your sensedine memories!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">But like Simon, Briony is not here and you are; poor little thing sitting glued at your sofa, staring at the telly screen, feeling miserably lethargic! I give you Briony, listen to her and try to cajole yourself to stand up and imagine that you have an infinite pair of arms and you can reach any galaxy you like and this one that you just touch does not have a name! Briony says: Name it! What are you going to name it! Not England! Not Africa! Not Japan! Not Milky Way! Name it something that marks you with it! How does it look! How many light years does its diameter encompass! How many black holes or stars does it have! What are you going to call it, this new galaxy of yours! Where is it! How can we sing it into a song that makes you into a Briony!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Come on! Briony says: Pluck this galaxy and name it. Briony says she can see it on your hair now! It looks astounding and it makes you look awesome.<span>  </span>I could hear you are </span><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">humming! Briony knows you are humming for I could feel it since Briony is my country, my universe and I keep my eyes and ears open to listen to every flow of her being! </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">This high tide is now receding and the waters that had brought the silts and soul of the sea to the lands, now deposited the desired wealth and it is now receding; becoming a pregnant gold colour, impregnated by the land’s and people’s left over touches and, it all now flows downhill. I sit beneath Westminster Bridge bridging the broken poles and pillars of my disarrayed thoughts. People are peopling the place, busy battering their cameras with photos that one day will be the only thing that remains of their past that they will look and probably will not remember the moments that they once lived. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">The Romanian musician took a hold under the bridge and played beautifully and I sit listening to the music of receding river’s waves hitting the wall and the music coming from under the bridge. It is almost tangible that I sit in an arch made of the music flowing from my back and the music rising from my front: man’s and God’s, two rising over me, two arches crossing each other, place me inside their beauty’s bound. I feel part of the peace and I looked at the water hitting this wall that invited in the river forming a letter I and this I rises on each ends onto steps that rise up greened by water-fed moss forming another green I on the grey wall. I look at the waters that are now only waves rising and hitting the wall and the steps and the sounds that they make are almost like the sounds of trains when they slow down approaching stations. These waves, these sounds, these pieces of peace, in which I am a part, begin to thicken in a beautiful spread over a glistening darkness that opens up an avenue on which I now walk: in the dark looking for a train, looking for the train that runs like a rising metaphor of music crafted in motion’s flows over the silence and chandelier-darkness.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">The train runs on a spread out elastic-rubber band of hours cutting an invisible snake-river over the dark-damp earth, night’s cool air and glistening dark space spreading sounds of hissing ceaselessly vibrating the spread of thick sleepy darkness spreading and rising as though knitting a wave-circled cloth of some magnificence. The only sound is the train, the only line is the train, the only motion is the train, the only awake is the train, the only movement and music is the train; the rest of the world is the celestial festival of darkness. The sky non existent as everything is engulfed in an eclipse of dark. In the absence of lights the matters that move away against the train’s speed look deeper shades of dark thus villages, trees and the vegetation appear darker art works over a another dark canvas all standing static and still.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">This still that drank silence till the train appears with its speedy running forward with the direction of ahead in its driver’s sleepy head. The dark is the firefly-dance of a different kind of lights. The air seems like air-aqua: cool and almost silk-moist on the face. I sit by the window let the speed-flown air comb my hair that flows backwards, a dark-hair spring over my dark head; I keep looking out where dark moves against dark almost like two dark lines travelling against each other and they meet, greet and says good bye at the same time. The window appears a connecting port hole and I look </span><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">through the darkness deeply bewitched by the magic of this expressive delights of things as they are and in which this silence knits this peace, pieces of which fit in so beautifully, almost like a lower case i where the dot stands floating over the main little line of the letter!<span>  </span>I drink the pieces at this window as though I was the Sub Saharan Desert sands and feel a burning desire to join in the pieces of the peace being the dot over the body of the lower case letter i and fit perfectly beautifully.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">I was at that point in time, Dhaka bound, on the intercity train that ran like poetry of motion’s signature signed in by motion’s glorious flowing ink in the dark slate through the countryside night-ride where night was what beauty might be: a song of serenity’s awesome tree spread over the horizon. The whole sky is eaten away into this dark tree that now holds all in a serengeti of beautiful darkness. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB">Darkness flows down over the river as the clouds thickens over head and the music now has stopped. I keep looking at the waters hitting the wall still making these beautiful sounds making music that rises and embraces me like a sonar vine. I still think of the train that runs on a spread out elastic-rubber band of hours cutting an invisible snake-river over the dark-damp earth, night’s cool air and glistening dark space spreading sounds of hissing ceaselessly vibrating the spread of thick sleepy darkness spreading and rising as though knitting a wave-circled cloth of some magnificence.

In the absence of lights the matters that move away against the train’s speed look deeper shades of dark thus villages, trees and the vegetation appears darker art works over another dark canvas all standing static and still. I imagine hearing a call, a voice, a note, calling me: Come in, here is the place for the dot!</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">Radha was my Matilde! But since I am no poet she never got sonnets and songs of love and despairs from me! Yet, she always kissed me with her soul making me a song, making me a sonnet and let me live that sonnet, that song with her in little moments which are the only stamps I have got to show for my living of this life! I lived in only moments’ that would fall from her mouth like honey-drop, like April’s wet-leaf letting go a silver drop of water and I would be the space taking it in. I only have memories of a few moments scattered across the peninsula of despairs and desolation of a life spent in not being loved: a stone of Stonehenge, a rock without any moss growing over its deathly face.</p>
<p>One of those moments with Radha, I remember, we were standing outside The Lyric. Evening’s mouth was open and, the sky was loving enough to let silver flow in her open bloom. We stood beneath the bright yellow lights, smoking. She and I, standing next to each other, almost touching. I felt my being arched towards her and hers mine forming an arch of our souls connecting us while the white smoke rose upwards through the yellow canvas of lights that grew over us making us almost a bridge stuck on the ground that felt the seismic earthquakes that were breaking our hearts, raging.</p>
<p>Radha does not speak: Radha whispers velvet pearls, lilac clouds, purple Lunaria Annua, mint green tea smoke, rising. Radha flows out like water flow on a spring and she makes me the spring bed. In those moments I touched her back, just. She spoke of her being at the Frankfurt Book Fair earlier in the year. She said she was going to Switzerland for a week or two. I looked at her in that wonderful evening that must have a memory of how astonishingly radiant she looked but nothing will ever know how my eyes saw her for that image of her made my heart bled of millions of needle stitches numbers of which must not be revealed. Had I have the power that evening I would have created a new universe and taken her into it and become a bubble of our own bursting like imsillions of supernovas! She looked a light-wet young bride, a living song. I called her in my mind My Bride since that evening. But she has never been my bride for we were on different points of the grid; always singing from the wrong song sheet.</p>
<p>Today, I remember it since, somehow, The Lyric came back to my mind and I went back to those few short moments outside The Lyric, standing beside Radha, looking at my own heart outside taken the shape of her body. Those moments became my life-times and sustained me to be the rock, the dead rock with no moss over it or the mute bleeding Stonehenge stone burying myself and my dreams continuously and the cold cold cold knife of desert desolation chopping on making a fire of being left outside: unloved. But Radha is my stamp for I forever loved her and sung her; Radha, my Beautiful Bride!</span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">It was a dream happening in reality. Bakerson was riding high, got a phd before his name, in love and planning to propose to Lisa, even bought a ring. No one can imagine Boston without the yellow cab and to him, Lisa and he was the yellow cab; one did not exist without the other. And yet here came the six month explosion that placed his head and heart in disarray.</p>
<p>The university offered him the chance to go to the Arctic Science Lab for six months and conduct a special project. This was a chance of a life time and yet he could not bear thinking he would have to stay apart from Lisa all that time, not propose, not get engaged, not get married and not do a whole lot of things!</p>
<p>Yet it was Lisa who pushed her to go and said: Six months will go like wind!</p>
<p>What do you know about the wind Liz! Bakerson talked to the face that he drew on ice with his finger, supposedly of Lisa. The wind blew hard howling through the emptiness that felt like invisible cold knives passing through his body as cold microwaves and it felt almost traveling in slow motion! Seconds seem like million years. He sat there and felt his mobile phone. It was the only thing that was his link to the world, to the universe, to Lisa and now it stopped working. The whole communication system collapsed in the extreme weather condition. Nothing was working. It will take a considerable time for help to arrive.</p>
<p>He looked at the phone again just in case miracles happened. This thing was the only thing that made sweetest of sounds when a Lisa’s text came or ring that made his heart jump out of its shell. He would feel he was not dead but now it seemed the whole universe had died and along with it he was dead only he became a ghost in this expressionless white cold bare barren landscape where he could only draw a face.</p>
<p>Only God knows, he spoke to the face, how long this will last. I will accept to die gladly millions a time, if someone came to tell me now that this phone was going to work, that it will ring again and, that I will have a way to know that I was still alive and not dead and I hear her ring this phone again!</p>
<p>The wind blew harder as the sun set. Bakerson smoked as he circled around the Lab’s desolate perimeter where he was nothing but a post script of a ghost bleeding in longing’s of love and separation!</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">On Sandown beach the evening looked Shangri-La; wearing summer breeze fragrance. The sky was bare in the greyish darkness. Shanklin went beneath the moon lit waves of the weaving sea: writhing, seething, hungry sea; crying, breaking, aching, screaming in absolute disarray. He stood on the beach and saw the triangle between Brightstone, Ryde and Shanklin and wondered as to how he had acquired this vision.</p>
<p>He thought of his weird dream. The dream of heaven becoming a giant trapedium of 12 years and hell got deleted. Further, he heard that even god himself was not sure what exactly happened. He was not sure where the light was anymore and he sought to seek it only to realise that his limbs had fallen apart, even though hungry and thirsty, he could not eat or drink; nor could he sleep.</p>
<p>He further realised that he had just died. That’s the best news so far, he thought. The telephone rang and the angel said: Time’s up! Did he wake up or was he dead?</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">When Dr Embasinga opened his surgery at Belle Street no one could ever pronounce his name, not even his chosen people including the young receptionist, from Ironmonger Avenue by the Silk Pond. She spent a long time trying to learn his name, yet, only managed to confuse herself by associating it with the Base or Basin or Embassy (whether it was the cigarette brand or an embassy she was not sure anymore) or Sing Along!</p>
<p>People were polite to him, though shocked and discomforted inside for the fact that this gentleman, a G.P of some sort, surely, was sent in here to serve a all-white population where he did not fit in. They ended up naming him in the village as Dr Motivator. Did he know that he was nothing but a black man to the very people he was saving, helping and supporting with his best?</p>
<p>However, people never called him by his name, but only as the Doctor! Hello Doctor was his polite lot; hello Monkey was his rude lot and BB for his worst lot; Dr Embasinga’s lot. He did catch up with all this gradually but did he care: not really, for he had taken the Hippocratic Oath to save and protect life, and help pass its light on.</p>
<p>Did it hurt! Who was to ask Dr Embasinga who now was busy delivering someone’s baby for the ambulance had not turned up in time at his surgery and he was now all white in his white apron contrasting his reddened black hands that held a baby up to the white mother to whom the baby looked like the soul of Dr Embasinga; a red beautiful soul that was now crying, turning her eyes into a landscape of heaven which only Dr Embasinga could see, now.</p>

‘Go on! Go on!’ sang the Child.<br />
‘Once upon a time, she said, there was a Prince who loved this Princess who did not love him back. So to just make the Prince go away she said: ‘If you love me, go and get your mother’s heart for she knew the Prince could not possibly get that.’</p>
<p>The Prince ran to his mother and asked for her heart and the mother let him take it off her ribcage.<br />
And then he ran and ran and ran….’<br />
‘And then what? Then what….?’ Impatient child urged on mother to hurry on.<br />
‘And then he hit a rock and fell and got badly hurt while his mother’s heart fell off his hand and was lying on the ground.<br />
As he lay on the ground, bleeding, he heard someone speak: ‘Are you alright, my darling?’ but he could not see anyone.’’<br />
‘Who was it? Who was it?’ The child danced on his mother’s lap.<br />
‘Can you guess?’<br />
‘Was it his mother’s Purple Heart?’<br />
‘How did you know that it was his mother’s heart and that it was purple? My little Prince!’ She kissed him.<br />
‘Because I know your heart is Purple, mum?’<br />
‘How do you know that!’<br />
‘When you kiss me you become a purple flower and I know your heart is purple.’<br />
‘Okay then, back to the story, so the Prince got up and picked his mother’s Purple Heart and started running again to get to the Princess who then turned him away.’<br />
‘Ooooohhh!’</p>
<p>‘So you now know how much mum loves you?’<br />
‘Yes.’<br />
‘How much?’<br />
‘As much as your Purple Heart!’<br />
‘Don’t you go and give it to any Cruel Princess, will you?’<br />

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">Outside his university gate, gateway to the universe, he stood like a glistening statue in summer sun, penniless he may be that day, but his eyes had bigger dreams and wider spread of a power of lights than mythical gods in Olympus; waiting for a rickshaw to get to the newspaper office where he worked part time but could he possibly imagine a blue one coming by! No, they would be red, green or orange with cinema advertising bill board colours.</p>
<p>Yet he had no money today to pay for the ride; five miles to walk otherwise. He had to go to work. He thought getting the fare from Ajay from the newspaper office. The rickshaw, not a blue one, came and he got on and rode to the office.</p>
<p>Wait here, please. I am coming back. It took a while to walk to the office and back with the two takas borrowed from Ajay; but the rickshaw puller had already left. What a dilemma for he was now forever in debt to him! He had owed nothing to anyone till that point yet now he did and did for the long haul since he would never be able to pay it back! He kicked himself and now, all these years later, being kicked at by life itself, this image of a blue rickshaw and the 2 taka-debt got tangled up. He needed to remember that rickshaw, that rickshaw puller, that 2-taka-debt to bring him to the image of the blue rickshaw!</p>
<p>On the beach of Isle of Wight he walked smelling curries for bigger dreams and wider spread of a power of lights than mythical gods in Olympus had been eaten and erased away by the unflinching waves of hot and hostile sea of time. Now, he worked at a restaurant serving curries and often received tips from the smelly wallets of drunk or sunk people, yet that two-taka debt to the rickshaw puller was still as fresh as a cut in his palm for that debt now connected him to this blue rickshaw. This blue rickshaw image that became his eternal boat where all his bigger dreams and wider spread of a power of lights than mythical gods in Olympus gathered like smiles of a happy day! He picked a pebble, looked at it and then looking at the horizon over the sea he skimmed the stone and watched how it made a line of waving arcs and he imagined the blue rickshaw now taking a mythical ride over the wavy line of these arcs.</span></span></p>

Dark soil lifted the lid of earth and a fragrance opened her inner heart’s radiance which he inhaled as he dug. Gardening is like treasure hunting; one might find finds that find connections to ages of the garden: Iron Age, Ice Age, Stone Age, Roman Age; all hidden beneath the earth and, as they are silked out of the earth they ring bells of dancing time if one knows how to just receive.</p>
<p>Out of this circle of earth came a round stone like an explorer’s watch, golden brown, a small heart shaped pebble, almost like a ring and a white-grey dead snail shell, shining. He froze in time for these things now glowed in his palm and he remembered the cover of a book he had read. He felt as if the book had come to life on his palm.</p>
<p>This watch, this ring-heart and this grey white beautiful snail shell spoke silence in exposition. He placed them on the grass like emeralds placed on a glistening green magic carpet. Then he planted two grape vines in the circle of earth and watered them. Wet in water, sun and the silk of his affectionate eyes the vines stood as the face of life.</p>
<p>They might one day produce emerald grapes; but for now he picked this watch, this ring and this snail shell and he said to himself: How about that! He held these items between his palms as the emmaphire stones of the universe as though without them his heart will fail to beat.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">Stuck in the tube, between stations, under the ground, obviously, middle of nowhere which must be near somewhere in some relation, we sit still inhaling exhausted air and dehydrated space; fuming but no smoke rises in colours or sounds. Suddenly the announcement speakers made a noise nicely waking everyone up and like everyone else with hopeful eyes I look to the public speaking system for any news of movement. Disappointed we sigh and settle back.</p>
<p>Good morning everyone. As I was coming to work this morning I found this book on the bus and I opened it. Man! I do not read much, but this seems to be a poetry book and it is full of good stuff! Listen to this:</p>
<p>The flame-red moon, the harvest moon,<br />
Rolls along the hills, gently bouncing,<br />
A vast balloon,<br />
Till it takes off, and sinks upward<br />
To lie on the bottom of the sky, like a gold doubloon.</p>
<p>I am not going to read the whole poem though, the best bit is:</p>
<p>Till the gold fields of stiff wheat<br />
Cry `We are ripe, reap us!&#8217; and the rivers<br />
Sweat from the melting hills.</p>
<p>This is good stuff! I hope I did not bore you to death with this poem! Hope to run along soon! Good day!</p>
<p>Train gets started a few minutes later. We are relieved and everyone resettled back to their seats and goes back to the silent jungle-tree mood.</p>
<p>As I got off the train I saw this woman in her mid thirties talking to the driver at his window.</p>
<p>Thank you for reading this! I loved your reading!<br />
The driver has poked out his head by then and he was all flushed up now.<br />
Wow! Thank you, he said and he looked at her with great disbelief in his eyes.<br />
I must have your name!<br />
James Marshall, yours?<br />
Melanie Miles. I loved your voice which apparently I have been hearing as you read this poem for the last ten years in my dreams if I may share this impossible with you and, she paused for a second, and, startled again, and this book is mine that I had left on the bust last night!<br />
Goodness me! The driver almost choked. Recovering he said: And I have been seeing you in my dreams all my life!</p>
<p>(The quote is from Harvest Moon: Ted Hughes)</p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:small;">Katherine’s Baby<br />
 </span></span></strong></span><span style="color:black;"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">Katherine disappeared like electricity does at night blackouts times at middle of wars. I was left hung like an imaginary bridge between the banks of Atlantic. I was hung there forever. Luckily, I realised that there was the ocean beneath me and the sky above so I replicated myself both in the water and the sky.</p>
<p>The only problem was both the sky and the ocean was Katherine! Did she know that! No, she stayed wrapped up in whatever it was her life threw at her, away, disconnected and dissolved. I carried the can with all the worms coming out and still counted words and remembered her last anonymous gift, a bloody poster, a damn great one at that, of some kind she designed for me! That is the only physical thing I had of her where there was this ring and the watch over the spread of God knows what!</p>
<p>A poster! But then, years later her poster was all over the Broadway. A musical coming up and it was her who was to perform there! I disbanded my hung-up den and bought a one way ticket to go and see Katherine but the Broadway was as hollow as my dreams for Katherine was not there anymore. Someone told me kindly with an American kind of benevolence that she had left to live in New Hampshire!</p>
<p>You mean, Hampshire!<br />
Oh, yes, yes. I heard she was going to have a baby!<br />
A baby!<br />
Yes, a baby, that comes out of a lady’s tummy you know! A bay bee!</p>
<p>I took my leave before inciting this guy’s sense of irritation further. And now Katherine has this baby for me to resolve like her blackout, a blackhole eating me away! Whose baby is it! Whose baby Katherine! Where are you?</p>
<p> </span><span style="color:black;"></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;margin:0;" align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:13.5pt;color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">i</span></strong><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN"><br />

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">In the shower we walk on the bridge where the shadows of the sky clouds interact with the black pitch and the lights and a grey works out over the space where our conversation forms a sonar canopy.</p>
<p>I look at her and feel my heart failing! I do not know how to look at her for each time I do I feel my heart is breaking! Oh, this woman! The core of this universe and how she cuts the red meat of my heart that has gone on a lunatic mixer of all colours!</p>
<p>Look! She exclaims suddenly stopping. She sat down on the pavement and minutely looked at something on the ground. The shower has stopped. I sat down in front of her.</p>
<p>Two of us now sitting like two hillocks facing each other forming a small valley between us; our breathes were reaching each other.</p>
<p>What is it? I ask and she showed me something on the road. A shower drop made a lower case of letter i on the road which was now a patchwork of dark wet spots and dry grey-white dust. And here before us is a little wet moist black line and this little dot over it.</p>
<p>This is us! Can you see it! She took a photo of it and I just stamped it in my soul!</p>
<p>Weeks later she sent me a painting of that road where two hills fall to form a little letter i</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN"><br />
<span style="font-size:small;">Ifa has sent me an M from Nigeria a land of black pearls and brilliant spread of beautiful earth singing so many a diverse songs at the same time and her M is doing that to me as I speak. A cowrie shell! An Mbuum! Ifa’s M!</p>
<p>Why did she leave in the first place! Why won’t she come home! Why won’t she let me come and bring her home! No, she is a dreamer: loving you but won’t let you love her; if this is designed to drive you to absolute lunacy, then hers is the most successful strategy of the greatest of wars!</p>
<p>I try to imagine this river is coming from the Ifa Mountain carrying her ring and watch and I keep a look out, scanning the silver pearl waves on the ever changing roof of the current humming the sea in high tide like my heart humming Ifa.</p>
<p>Do I find the ring? Do I find the watch? No, instead a 2P coin lands on the steps like a brown kiss on my palm. I keep it like the core of the earth, if I ever find home or if Ifa ever comes home, to give it to her!</p>
<p>Ifa’s M is still eating away my heart as I walk back carrying empty Sahara inside being wet silently while my heart is nothing but the steam blocking and choking the lid of the kettle of my throat and my eyes now is a monsoon sky’s blur.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">Sally said to Millie to tell Shelly to call Kelly to ask her mother Molly whether Jilly could come with Polly, her cousin to go to Carley’s Birthday party at the Salsberge Theatre Crop’s Café.</p>
<p>No returned as an answer which relayed in a long line of Oh! No! So! Go! Till it reached Sally who then rallied it to Carley who was expecting all the guests.</p>
<p>No, that’s not right and she decided to go and knock on Kelly’s mother’s door which was ajar. She came out, smiled and invited Carley in! Carley collapsed in her rage and could not say anything like what she was planning to say; since Molly had just nipped all her extra unnecessary thorns and pruned her into a new plant!</p>
<p>People should be like that; she thought as she came outside the house, they get the best plant out of a disarrayed bush simply by being so disarmingly warm and human!</p>
<p>Okay auntie! She managed to say as she came out of the house for she agreed that they are having Carley’s party at Kelly’s mum’s who would do it for her since it was her 20th.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">This urge became Liz. She now held the university library microphone as the librarian left for the loo and started talking: Attention all boys in year Your Chance is Naught! This is Liz. Why won’t you leave me alone when you know I am not alone! If you do not believe me I have Dr Matthews, the Vice Chancellor, here, to validate it!</p>
<p>Everyone was stunned, strung up, open mouthed but Liz was standing dead, disarrayed and red next to the real body of Dr Matthews, smiling: That’s right, leave this young woman alone, boys! She is with me!’ Liz looked at him thinking in a blank, moonscape-head: Holly Cow!</p>
<p>Dr Matthews suddenly realised the implication of what he had just said and felt embarrassed, red and promptly said: Indeed it is a great April fool’s day venture from Liz! However, I mean it boys: leave her alone. Saying this he left, smiling; leaving Liz standing there, a red statue while her friends were knitted at their seats, glued in silence.</p>

Of a lopped melon, but love is hard to stop</p>
<p>In their entwined sleep they exchanged arms and legs<br />
In their dreams their brains took each other hostage</p>
<p>In the morning they wore each other&#8217;s face’’</p>
<p>This was written on sand brown paper that he found as he climbed up the spiralling stair-case of the tube. He would have walked passed it had it not been for the handwriting that was so wonderful that forced him to stop and pick it up. He read the quotes as he reached for the outside world: fresh air and sun’s duo welcome.</p>
<p>He does not read much but this is poetry, surely, even he knows that. As he walks towards his road he reads these lines and tries to think who could have written this poem which is not his or hers and why would they? He tried to imagine whether it is a man or a woman copying? Who did they copy it for? Was he in love with this woman and borrowed a poet! Why did he not give this note to her? Or did he? And then why and how did she leave it here in such a manner! Beautiful lines these are even he can say that!</p>
<p>Excuse me! He looks up. This young woman in a smart suit walking towards him; he stopped and said: Yes, how can I help?</p>
<p>I am looking for Palace Park Hotel.</p>
<p>Palace Park Hotel is on Park Avenue which is about five minutes walk from here.</p>
<p>He offered her direction, precise and accurate, for he works in this area, after a short pause he suddenly asks: Do you read poetry?</p>
<p>Poetry! In fact, I do! Why?</p>
<p>He does not answer but offers her the piece of paper and says: May be, you should have this!</p>
<p>He walks off and the young lady stands there reading the note.</p>
<p>Thank you. She looks at his back: I am going to work a Palace Park Hotel! As she walks off she wonders whether he had heard her!</p>

Thison and thatforth Munsamin. Isstick or thisstock Munsamin! I spent too much in paracetamols in those years!</p>
<p>Years later, after nothing had happened between the poor sod and her, I stood in a professional gathering and heard: I read your book.</p>
<p>I turned round and it was Munsamin. You do still remember me? She added quickly. You bet, I thought, but said: Of course, I do! How are you? It felt like someone had entered my head, heard what I thought and then wrote about them. How does that happen? Sorry, you’ve lost me? I said. I meant your writing, she clarified. Oh! I see! I said but I was thinking about the countless days and nights my poor friend was living in cloud-sunk soul thinking about her. I wondered whether she ever wonder about him or he her.</span></span></p>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">Radha was my Matilde! But since I am no poet she never got sonnets and songs of love and despairs from me! Yet, she always kissed me with her soul making me a song, making me a sonnet and let me live that sonnet, that song with her in little moments which are the only stamps I have got to show for my living of this life! I lived in only moments’ that would fall from her mouth like honey-drop, like April’s wet-leaf letting go a silver drop of water and I would be the space taking it in. I only have memories of a few moments scattered across the peninsula of despairs and desolation of a life spent in not being loved: a stone of Stonehenge, a rock without any moss growing over its deathly face.</span></span></div>
<div><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">One of those moments with Radha, I remember, we were standing outside The Lyric. Evening’s mouth was open and, the sky was loving enough to let silver flow in her open bloom. We stood beneath the bright yellow lights, smoking. She and I, standing next to each other, almost touching. I felt my being arched towards her and hers mine forming an arch of our souls connecting us while the white smoke rose upwards through the yellow canvas of lights that grew over us making us almost a bridge stuck on the ground that felt the seismic earthquakes that were breaking our hearts, raging.</span></span></div>
<p><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#333333;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN">Radha does not speak: Radha whispers velvet pearls, lilac clouds, purple Lunaria Annua, mint green tea smoke, rising. Radha flows out like water flow on a spring and she makes me the spring bed. In those moments I touched her back, just. She spoke of her being at the Frankfurt Book Fair earlier in the year. She said she was going to Switzerland for a week or two. I looked at her in that wonderful evening that must have a memory of how astonishingly radiant she looked but nothing will ever know how my eyes saw her for that image of her made my heart bled of millions of needle stitches numbers of which must not be revealed. Had I have the power that evening I would have created a new universe and taken her into it and become a bubble of our own bursting like imsillions of supernovas! She looked a light-wet young bride, a living song. I called her in my mind My Bride since that evening. But she has never been my bride for we were on different points of the grid; always singing from the wrong song sheet.</p>
<p>Today, I remember it since, somehow, The Lyric came back to my mind and I went back to those few short moments outside The Lyric, standing beside Radha, looking at my own heart outside taken the shape of her body. Those moments became my life-times and sustained me to be the rock, the dead rock with no moss over it or the mute bleeding Stonehenge stone burying myself and my dreams continuously and the cold cold cold knife of desert desolation chopping on making a fire of being left outside: unloved. But Radha is my stamp for I forever loved her and sung her; Radha, my Beautiful Bride!</p>

I followed her and in the warm breeze and shining moon she walked to the beach and I followed her. Two shadows fell, long, parallel to our upright bodies beneath the magical matrix of the moon and the calm sea swallowing the nectar of the moon, glistening in a thick moist foggy silver silence. There is no power in my words to translate that beyond earthly magnanimity of that beautiful night on which stood fluently bloomed an awesome beautiful Jennifer, where everything was: the whole earth, the stars spread dome of the dark sky, in silence sung space, the moon, the quiet, yet, in speech ocean, rising and falling, glistening as she does so, the silver silent fluorescent moon, the flowing moonlights, the falling shooting stars, every now and then, rushing down, chasing each other and the tiny island, held in the  shape of an awe of unreachable tangibility among which  we two souls, walking side by side, where our shadows kiss the sands, shone by the moonlights! Life is an impossible thing! Life is an impossible thing! Everything was a poem there, than: being read. Everything was a song there, than: being sung. Everything was magic there, than: being unfolded. Everything was art there, than: being created. Everything was a miracle there, than: being splendoured out. Everything was love there, than: being all encompassing a magnestim of life. Everything was Jennifer, there, than: being inhaled and sung in my soul. I am sure it was not just I who had felt that way that night. A night, an event where the universe and we were one: singing.&#8221; </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:115%;text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size:small;">&#8220;Wet at her door she stood, her cheeks took a colour that I had never seen on a woman’s cheeks before. Her eyes illuminated as though there supernovas were taking shapes giving births to endless array of stars and their spectacles were spreading outwards like shooting rays of lights. Her cheeks became a burning exuberant red scarlet pink and violet all mixed and I could not figure out this awesome, this magnanimous combination of colours. </span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:115%;text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size:small;">I felt as if that was the colour of love, that was the colour of heaven that I had never seen in my entire life. I froze looking at her. This feeling is not a guess or logical exposition but a phenomenon that finds you and holds you there: arrest you to just watch and get fused in its magical wonders. </span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:115%;text-align:justify;margin:0;"><span style="color:black;font-family:&quot;" lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-size:small;">I felt that being at the door, that woman, looking at me, there, that magnanimous artwork of God’s creation, framing and forming me there, is my heart and I did not feel like walking away from her. I went back to her and held her both hands and looked at her face and I tried to inhale that image of her, imprint that image inside me and imprint it inside my soul so that I never get lost in the dark, so that I never forget what love was or how actually love looked like. She carried on looking and carried on resonating her inner glowing awesome colours and lights that she had expounding her being till I found a word: imsonium.&#8221; </span></span></p>
