Weighing worry,
Cumulus clouds droop
At a misinformed milestone
I leave the group
Inviting wastelands
A role reprise
I'm tethered to stone
Self sacrifice
Time lapse and
Happiness elope
I'm left hanging
On a tightrope
Funnel me into the void
Patronise, don't pacify
My solitary echo
Is just a lingering sigh
A state of paralysis
That you've defined
I'm disturbed, I'm free
It's all in your mind
About Me
- Arvind
- I'm weird. And forever on a quest to discover the self. Emotional to the extent of confusing people. I use satire & sarcasm as a sad excuse for humour, always at the expense of underprivileged people. Music is my best friend! I'm moody and hard to figure out. I'm condemned to a life of celibacy because I am plagued by a horde of horribly complicated issues. And more so, because I choose to be what I am. I love emasculating people and leaving them bewildered. I shall warn you however, that I will always have the last word. And while you sit there, disgruntled, holding me in contempt of my crass way of undermining your power of authority, I sit amused. Not at the expense of your helpless plight, but at my unfair advantage. I'm also prejudiced towards old people, especially when they give me things I really need, like money. I have two blogs, click on my ghastly profile picture to see them.
Songs I Highly Recommend (Download Links Provided)
- Röyksopp - Vision One
- Rekevin - Peter
- David Buckley - The Mountain Of Fruit & Flowers
*************************************
Vision One is from the 2009 Röyksopp album titled 'Junior'. It is an addictive song that can grab hold of you and not let go, especially if you pay close attention to the enchanting lyrics. Röyksopp does it again with their diversity. May they never cease to amaze me
*************************************
Rekevin, a Russian band tastefully combines melancholic downtempo with acid jazz, often accompanied by the smooth vocals of Ksenia. The song 'Peter' is reminiscent of the magic Diana Krall created, but with a new age touch. This song is from their 2008 album, titled 'A Peacock'
*************************************
I predicted that the joining of Jackie Chan & Jet Li would bring about a martial arts movie that nobody would forget. But even though the movie was sadly Hollywood-ized, the score retained it's Chinese roots and is mindblowing. How David Buckley induced so much magic in oriental ambience is beyond me. But it puts you in the right kind of trance. This song is a soundtrack to the movie 'The Forbidden Kingdom' released in 2008
