The Tea-shop girl
The corner shop that serves us teaAnd houses all furore.From rising price to falling starsIn voices shrill and sore.A pair of eyes does follow themLook askance at their dinWhen closing shop with little handsOr washing strainers clean.A simple riddle troubles her,At times, does make her smileHow grown up men have silly fightsKnowing all the whileTha...  more...

Leave me alone
Leave me alone here,Where the shadows of the sun tickle my feet,Where sequestered moons of my twenty years, They rub their silver scales against lonely wounds. Here, where the night skies wallow in my smallness.I will worship my own godsI will fight my own demonsHere, the evening prayer chants carry my soulHere, the temple’s inner sanctum beckonsOh...  more...

LIFE
Life can be compared to sleep.You close your eyes and prefer to be in darkness,Thinking it to be a restful phase.The dreams are nothing but your life events,Which you seem so attached to.Sunrise can be compared to death.The light streams in.Your eyes open,The dream ends,And reality sets in.The dreams now appear unreal to you.When I say "death",I me...  more...

Did you know?
  If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have   produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.         (Hardly seems worth it.)         If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is   produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.        (Now that's more like it!)        The human heart creates enou...  more...

She stirs lazily in bed as the sun creeps from between the curtains to wake her up… Rays dodge the stray locks on her face to light up her face… Thoughts of him lay strewn by her pillow… The memory of his divine kisses brings a rush of colour to her cheeks and her heart beats a tad faster… She curls up on the satin sheet, her pillow held close to h...  more...

Maybe later, when I have some money in the bank I will take a year off and go train spotting. A...  more...

All this may seem obvious, but to physicist Costas Efthimiou and other scientists, the public often isn't as skeptical as you might think.
