She Walks In Beauty - George Gordon

She walks in beauty like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies,
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to the tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One ray the more, one shade the less
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress
Or softly lightens o'er her face,
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling place.

And on that cheek and o'er that brow
So soft, so calm yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow
But tell of days in goodness spent
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent.

Shine on you crazy diamond..

Who Ever Loved, That Loved Not at First Sight? - Christopher Marlowe

It lies not in our power to love or hate,
For will in us is overruled by fate.

When two are stripped, long ere the course begin,
We wish that one should love, the other win;
And one especially do we affect
Of two gold ingots, like in each respect:
The reason no man knows, let it suffice,
What we behold is censured by our eyes.
Where both deliberate, the love is slight:
Who ever loved, that loved not at first sight?

Hear Ye..

Vatan ki fikr kar nadaan
musibat aane wali hai
teri barbadiyon ke mashvarein hain aasmaanon mein.
Na samjhoge to mit jaaoge Ai Hindustan walon
tumhari daastan tak bhi na hogi daastanon mein.

Not all those who wander are lost..


Think before u Ink?

Tattoo the pristine flesh
What is permanent anyway?
This ink only lasts 'til the grave,
Skin and ideas decompose
That which we did compose. - Corri Alius




Crowded House

Smiling as the shit comes down
You can tell a man from what he has to say
Everything gets turned around
And I will risk my neck again, again..

Well this one Sunday a friend an I embarked on a mission to create a motion picture film (short); for posterity and a plum position in an immaculate art school. The efforts are evident. And by the way the primary purpose was successfully accomplished! ..despite incredible odds like next day deadlines, knuckle busting heavy bags and undependable technology courtesy of Bill Gates.
