About Me

My photo
Hi, this is somebody who has taken the quieter by-lane to be happy. The hustle and bustle of the big, booming main street was too intimidating. Passing through the quieter by-lane I intend to reach a solitary path, laid out just for me, to reach my destiny, to be happy primarily, and enjoy the fruits of being happy. (www.sandeepdahiya.com)

The primal absurdity

 


Trying to squeeze out freedom like someone trying to force out the last bit of paste from a spent toothpaste tube. The paste made of wonder, danger, deceit, mischief, treachery, hope, love and hate.

To clean the unclean, spotted fangs of slavish prisoner’s conscience. The ritual of cleaning efforted with a fascinating evocation.

The pursuit of a mirage—a clean God; a pure Goddess. And the intention of pilgrimage itself enough to give oneself a clean chit.

A pilgrimage, taking intriguing path between love and cruelty.

With showcased sweetness and hidden pungency, the mankind tries to bridge the path between banquets and battlefields. A dagger in one hand and dove in the other.

All this in pursuit of a faint interlude of happiness; a brief blessing against the persistent curse; some secret sorrow sucking frustration and pain into one’s being.

Some spans of undivided attention, pointed focus and forceful direction in the vast sea of variegated shades of frenzied follies.

The malignant mirage, in clandestine complicity with chaos, cajoling with elaborate courtesy. Calling with its gaudy flavor and colorful theatrics.

The happy runner in the sands dying as a resentful, exhausted, embittered wreck in the desert. Flesh frozen with fear in the breathlessly sweltering heat. Maggots would then cast clumsy coils of decay and rot.

The scandalized sunbeams softly yielding to darkness through the evening.

But the sky would still peer with mystic subtlety.

A crudely satisfying day for the destiny.
