They sat together, completely at peace
When she expressed her desire
Her father's sacrifice required her presence, She said
He would not go, because He was unwanted
Her father hated him, Dweller of graveyards
Did not share the love millions had for Him
And she had her father's temper
She too, was like Him - an untameable force
He told her not to go, forbade it completely
But she wouldn't listen
He told her if she left, she couldn't come back
Still, she went
Soon after, He heard of her gruesome fate
She had let the fire consume her
He did not know how to react, what to feel
Love, Anger, Hate, Remorse or Grief
He went and saw her body
Half mutilated, and still full of the beauty He adored
He carried her, and waves of emotion swept over Him
The sight of His corpse bride unleashed within Him a primeval rage
He began dancing, and Dance became Rage
Dance became Rage and Rage became Dance
His lifeless wife in His arms, He danced
Until the world began to fear
None could stop Him; stop the fury He unleashed
In His Rage, in His Grief, In His Love
He had told her; hadn't He told her?
He wished He had never forbidden her at all
His mind transcended levels hitherto unknown
Planes where Fear was nothing, and Rage, everything
He embodied Rage, consummating its marriage with Love
Dancing, feeling, destroying
Somehow, this feels complete.

Next Set
1. Some people have no clue what they want.
2. When I think of the way I was many years ago, I feel pukish at what I was a few months ago.
3. But now, I'm Back.
4. I have decided to defer my thriller for a while, and work on a commercial script.
5. I'm not so sure that so-called morals have helped me achieve anything I have in this life.
6. Porcupine Tree is a band that SoundScape must cover.
7. Of course, I miss her. But I also have my self respect, and will not tolerate its violation anymore.
8. When people forget where they come from, it hurts the people from their past very much, because they have cut these people out of their lives for their own convenience.
9. Work is a good excuse to get out of anything, including dates :)
10. I live and let live. I expect the same courtesy from people. If I am denied that courtesy, it's only a matter of time before I lash out. When I do, it's going to be ugly.
11. I had the most amazing spiritual experience at the Mahalingapuram Shiva Temple last evening. I went there with a friend. Thank God she took me there.
12. "I do not die because beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof" - V as in V for Vendetta
13. "There are no perfect marriages, Naveen. There are only forgiving marriages" - My Mother
14. "I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man" - Che Guevara
15. It's amazing how people think Che was communist. The idiots.
16. "I, like God, do not play with dice and I don't believe in coincidences" - V again
17. Sex and Race, because they are easy, visible differences, have been the primary ways of organising human beings into superior and inferior groups and into the cheap labour on which this system still depends. I want to see a society in which there will be no roles other than those chosen, or those earned. What I am really talking about is Humanism
18. "Any new idea, is asked two questions. The first is asked when it’s weak: WHAT KIND OF AN IDEA ARE YOU? Are you the kind that compromises, does deals, accommodates itself to society, aims to find a niche, to survive; or are you the cursed, bloody-minded ramrod-backed type of damnfool notion that would rather break than sway with the breeze? The kind that will almost certainly, ninety-nine times out of a hundred, be smashed to bits; but the hundredth time, will change the world?" "What’s the second question?", Gibreel asked. "Answer the first one first" - My absolute favourite quote from Satanic Verses. I am the latter
19. "The very rich and the very poor make their own rules. The middle class suffers the evils of both sides." - My Grandfather
20. This day, mark it on your calendar. The Chinese Year of The Rat begins on February 8th. 1984, my birth year was also a Rat year. This year, something is going to change, and it's going to change monumentally. I can feel it. Call me stupid, but far too many signs are pointing to this year being MY year. Be Prepared.
