Lucidity flutters and reality blurs. I stood by my office window watching tall structures and darkening skies but the truth is my mind had taken a leave of absence and decided to settle somewhere for a while. I began to deconstruct the world and saw myself in an unfamiliar realm of the third person, and [...]

It’s full of misgivings, anxiety, lovelorn heart-strings, fanatical excitement, fleeting fantasies, receipts of tales, drunken moments of poetic expressions – and I felt wistful, diving into the scraps of travel memoirs and discorded past. There is something beautiful amidst this mess – I’ve yet to locate what – of seemingly useless bits and ends, that [...]

I contemplate occasionally if this bond is real – this isn’t trite, it isn’t superficial nothingness, and all those chatting for hours on end were for once, entertainingly real, regardless of your alcohol-induced frame of mind.
