SHE was destiny's daughter, no longer Fate's Bride. Shaped by tides of emotions, as deep as the tears of the oysters she wore. Pearls, they called it... now she knew why. Each perfect beauty molded like the tears she'd cried.Pure, transluscent, fragile. Many had loved her but she wore her widowhood like a mantle. Protecting her from rapacious eyes lusting to satisfy their greed. It sheltered her from falling in love again. Yet, she did.

The unbearable lightness of being insignificant in her lover's life. He had yet to come to terms with her widowhood. Something, that was a nagging thought in his otherwise placid life. Choices left to moods, because he knew... one day, he'd just take up a virgin as easily as he lied about her existence in his life. Just one of those technicalities solvable by appliying a formula.

Yet, she often pondered. Shouldn't time and maturity bring one close to the one and only truth... Death? She was still destiny's child, following her mother's footsteps whatever fate meted out to her. Love only held her hand when noone was looking. A lover afraid of truth casting long shadows in his own life. Her insignificance was not personal, just another grain in a series confusion created by a fleeing mind.His.

She was DESTINY, tired of living a lie! Her mantle, shining as a bride's veil, nolonger in the shadow of a cladestine lover who feared the her truth. Hypocrisy has no place in love. Hypocrisy shares no space in life.

Mostly static and envy of dynamic arrows
My bow is in quagmire almost always
Chances are arrows at least meet the goals far away
Targets my arrow is awarded with -
Rarely go beyond those piercing arrows.

Your 1982 Ford might be crawling. How sad? You need your girl fiends to push it for half mile to get the engine started. Crawl for other 10 miles to speed up to 20 mph, with drivers honking constantly to drive fast, you would finally enter the parking lot to give it some EXTRA rest. FYI, mine is V10 Porsche, its not Porche. Duh. And yeah, I am breaking the speed limit b'cause it's built that way. Duh. Now burn with jealousy Missy.

Ah in flight they might be
but fleeing!
Dynamic, they might be
but destructive.
Allow me to rest,
in blissful quagmire-
Timeless space is all I need.
A break in speed is all I seek.

A blissful quagmire - I once loved
thought existed but only in wish
Now do I hear my cherished wish appeal?
Tangled but pretends in love with quagmire-
Let me out!

I could easily resign but I wonder
what would I say to arrows
Ready to fly and flee-
When and if they call me selfish?

Hey can I suggest something? Why do not u gals settle this over a mud wrestle?

Please do not forget to invite me though. I will come with my six packs.

Peace

hm!
anyway, I can hardly comprehend what Sitara writes most of the time here. It appears very esoteric.
same goes for meh:(so can hardly comment!

but converstaion is really refreshing...between sitara ji and deep ji:)

well don know but letme say keep on coming.who knows i might understand one day:)
but ya vermillion is one good story!that i admit!!.

Ferdinand's legacy operating out of Zuffenhausen has only one production model sold in the US that has a V10. Its the 2004/2005 Porsche Carrera GT.

Now even IF the Sonic aberration could AFFORD the base $440,000 price, just getting on the WAITING LIST, which is a veritable Who's Who, requires some SERIOUS pull. I'm soooo convinced ole mealy mouth was a special invitee.

Getting that car off the starting blocks would be an achievement. With its quad hair-trigger clutch plates and MANUAL transmission, old motor mouth would most likely either STALL the engine or SMOKE the tires and fishtail straight into the nearest yellow top cabbie.

Has a V10 Porsche? Yup. About as likely as the Pope peddling condoms and RU486 at the Sistine Chapel.

Cherie, Happy Jhyalencha (Valentine's) Day to you..a bit late. I was under the weather and hadda go under cover(s).

I identify closely with the theme of your doodling. I've watched, from close quarters, the weight of social prejudice fall on the shoulders of a young Nepali widow. Fortunately, I am pleased to say, that particular story had the veritable fairy tale ending of 'happily ever after.'

I salute your courage in looking into an archaic and shameful social custom. Perhaps it discomfits some, prodding them into attack. Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose!


Ms. Ashlee,
I appreciate that you had us take a peek at the view through the unique lens you possess. Staking no claims to literary sophistication or class, but merely as one of the admiring and appreciative hoi polloi, might I encourage you to continue your literary outpourings?

A votre sante!

What's this fuss about? Do meditation!!! Be happy!

One step further and my back breaks (trying to understand)... bhancha ni... It's like an infinite loop, I read first paragraph, go to second and thrid and fourth and I loop back to the first... and it loops on and on and I still can't comprehend... Is it my jaded mind or drained out brain cell or half past midnight... eh. No it's not what Sitara hazur wrote (what she writes is always a pleasure to read), it's "why" Sitara hazur wrote this that bothers me... ehe... yeah yeah!! Read too many Agatha Christies... LOL... wanna be Hercule Poirot... but there must be something about these four paragraphs... some hidden meaning... something cryptical... Tell me your dreams hau.. :D -- aah, thinkin' too much these days... ehe, if only i had some grey cells, i'd be Einstein by now.. ehe (whinin')...

Laterz...

Czar bro, how u? email add. paam na hau... "Aapka kuch samaan hamaare paas pada hein" ... lol.

Ashley, good one!

mindGames, Original! I find Sajha to be a great place to hang out. There are always people who are creative and who fake to be creative again and again. Isn't that right ? By the way do you only critique, mercilessly, I might add, or write original piece too?

- JUNETA007

Soniky_NY, Hi! You ARE original! Keep it up. Don't change or We will never another you!

By the way do you only critique, mercilessly, I might add, or write original piece too?


--yes, he does junet. some of his works are on Sajha Guild. Here is a little paragraph from his short poem:


Memories burn too: like leaves,
Like old love letters. Heart burns
On its own wick. Ablaze in
Desolate inferno, tender is
My breast's fire tonight
When once again you burn,
And flicker in my sight.

Sonika:Porsche :: Mindgames:claims to literary sophistication


Confused, good pick!
"Memories burn... heart burns... breast burns" Original indeed! CRAP burns big time!

Mindgames can add: ENVY BURNS bigger time.

Hot damn, can't believe I missed this thread, it's got ever-thang: literary rivalry, literary criticism, (beating-about-the-bush) love rivalry, gang phyte, and comedy, the last of which is best illustrated by Don Quixote come riding on poor Rocinante, ready to battle windmills and support the damsel in distress--a damsel who hardly needs rescuing, may I add, nor one easily given to distress. But hey, when the chivalrous Don Quixote--heavily armed with the know-all, superior irony of the 21st century, and a seething bitterness to boot--decides enough is enough and proceeds to tell us what is what, us Sancho Panzas (and perhaps the damsel) have no choice but to bow down to the Lord's moral indignation and say thank you anyways.

I salute the Lord's courageous evisceration of our sorority Sonic Sistah and his honest, principled stand as a very humble, French-spouting member of the hoi polloi. Salud!

Now where the hell is that Birader RastaFraud when we need his enlightened words? Paging Birader Rastafariya, paging Birader Rastafariya, yoo-hoo, this way, Birader, quickly!

Laughing Buddha,

Who's envious here? Of Whom? Are you hinting that mingame is jealous of Sitara's fame? Her writing estyle?

JUST CURIOUS!

About Sonika_NY, she has foul-mouthed a lots of people here. Putting others down with lots of haughty DUH! DUH! is her speciality.


Sitara, I hope u didn't mind my 'esoteric' comment. Apun ko woh apka likha hua story samaj me aya kehi seconds me, lekin bahut tyam laga sabdo/ phrases ko understand karne me). I know u are a big sport:-)).

'artistocracy' - it doesn't exist in my lexicon.

Mindgames just committed Literary harakiri with his "own" borrowed Poroffessoree standards. Why put out a FLAWED piece (of...) in the Guild!

Dijya hear me say "jealous"?
Where in Hawaii Tiki queen?

hahahahha, ma maree ni hassh udhera..hahahhahah...i am literally on the floor, laughin my ass off!!

hahaha, L_B, who are you man? hahha, why do you always DEFEND Sitara? Maybe its good defending her on other posts, here it is just not your ground. ..you r just makin a joke out of your own self. i ask, why do you wanna look like a fool?? :)

many of you all have noticed, L_B only appears when anyone criticizes sitara..

true sitara bhakta cha kto or kt..who knows??

Yo Dumb, Where's Dumber and Dumbest your sidekicks? Notice, whenever Dumb likes his az kicked he appears. That's in every thread sitara writes!
