Biography

I am here to read and share. I was looking for a place where I can exclude myself from the yapping and demands of the corporate world. Where procedures, structures and systems equals to a job well done. A pat in the back is just a pat in the back. I am glad that I found this place. I might as well feed my sanity here.

Third Child, Third Face You curl your body into a fetal position Arching your back until you can feel the torment of which should snap first Either your backbone or your soul. You said “Not anymore!” And turn yourself into a mythical creature. Something untrue. You are a different type, a different kind. And you are angry most often. You once promised to be more calm and outspoken. Instead, you clench your fists as you listen to their foolishness. You squint your eyes as they try to hurt your vision. And you swallow them foolish into nothingness. You are the strongest at this point. You are more of a magical bird to me. Lightweight but with stone-like skeletons. When you close your wings Your feathers outline your rough edges then your shadow forms a heart like figure. And when you fly You are the most beautiful Not a man with a broken soul could ever fly. You are beyond possible. A beast with breathing blood, blue veins, open eyes, and big dreams. A beautiful face with wounded words, sharp tongue , four-chambered heart, and tired flesh. You are just in the dark. Slaying what is hurtful to you. Come out now, come out now! And let your face be known. – Kwin

Love it it Kwin.
You have opened that cage and invited the other to come out and soar free with gay abandon. After the struggle, the release. And then restoration!

Strangely enough the stifling, snooty corporate world has brought both of us here. This is my shrine.

Nice work. Keep on magnetizing and manifesting that wonderful soul within.

Love&Light.
Raj
