White Wizard



White Wizard, 
He's going away,
White Wizard,
Can't you make him stay?
All this time you were around,
Silent and Eager, Quiet and Strong.
Took for granted all the moments
Now long gone just memories
Of our unfinished song.
There you were
When need made me cling..
Its a crime, a crying shame,
That fear made me let go
Of what was mine...

First there was Fate,
And then there were Rules,
Strangers both to 
One's that choose.
One sealed my lips,
The other crushed my soul,
Together tormenting, 
Never for a moment apart.

Desperate mind that never knew,
Hell it would be,
To live without you.
Wishful thinking of a foolish heart,
Things would change..
Tonight the stars will shine'
Tomorrow the sun will rise again....


(This was inspired by the song White Demon - The Killers)

She stood on the ground /
Pride and grace personified /
Nature's porcelain dream //

A Haiku - 16 And A Photo Tweet



As she nervously rambled on about the detergent sales dip in their branch; 
he pondered guiltily over their break-up's effect on her.

Philosophy Of A Book Lover

Book Challenge Day 2

Day 2: A Book That You’ve Read More Than Three Times
Footprints Of God - Greg Iles

A bestseller which sparked countless discussions between me
and my brother (who bought the book).

This book is a fictional, intriguing story of a secret U.S
government project "Trinity" that attempts to use MRI 
scans to map the brain. The goal is to create a super computer that not only has artificial intelligence; but self aware based on the brain model of the project head paving way for the so called immortality of man.


The hero is David Tennant, a professor of ethics - 
part of the project; he deals with sabotage and murder of 
colleagues while attempting to discover the sinister master
plan. In the process, he has miracle experiences himself.

I loved the premise of the book.... a lonely god who created
 the universe to find out the reasons for his existence; who also enters spiritually inclined (as distinguished from religious) to teach various lessons he has learnt.


The climax is unexpected, leaving us with more questions 
than answers regarding the origin of religion, ethics and 
unmonitored use of technology.


This is the Second part of the 30 day book challenge created 
by Paulami at her blog Acotation Al Margen.
Do have a peek if curling up with  a good book is one of your 
favourite pastimes.
