Like a dying echo of the birth of the world in a shell, I try to find the beginning of our end in your silence. When this comforting occurrence of silence slowly lost its meaning. Comfort turned into brooding hatred. It all started with the want to impress you. We tested each other's walls. Were [...]

The look of strangers is the look of fear being transferred from them to me from me to them It's the battle of the eyes to test each other's supremacy in a whisker of a moment and then you forget Paranoia looks upon your shoulder Your mind turns to glimpse on the periphery The evil [...]

In the darkness, I see the truth. Not the darkness that resembles a vignette but an utter darkness that engulfs you in its void. It resembles the night sky and the truth illuminates like the moon, but sometimes it is like a blink and miss when the lightning strikes. Then you wait for the lightning [...]

Two oldies are walking down the village road and they find themselves in front of a house that is emitting smoke. "Something on fire aye. It's coming from the chimney" "Na man that's the election of the pope" "Yah, I've read it in one of those, what do you call it, internet, if the smoke [...]

She didn't react to my behaviour. Nor did she express any contempt. But all I could hear in her footsteps and the saintly silence with which she worked, all I could hear was reaction and contempt. I am a child of my mother. My age is 22, and I have no job. Not because I [...]

The story is inspired by the Writing Prompt - "100% of people who drink water will die" sounds like a dumb statistic, but you are 900 years old and very thirsty. Enjoy! --------- "Dude you've got to meet this guy. He looks so... different but speaks so wise. Have you seen "The Man from Earth" where [...]

My consciousness reaches its sleepiness attention at the banality of my clients. I've always tried to keep the sessions of the two patients with similar conditions distant so as to not let the monotony of it pierce through my attention for them both. But it could not be helped today. The two schizophrenic patients, the [...]

Attention! Stay Strong! Humans Don't Cry! These words were inscribed on a wall under which I watch a human like me, traumatised, unlike me. The ground is neat and clean, we humans have done a massive job at cleaning our surroundings to mirror our inner thinking, clean as a whistle. Up in the air were [...]

Desks are still here. Chairs are not. Computers are still here. Humans are not. Well some of us are still here. We are trying to teach the A.I. everything we know about the job collated from the gargantuan experience we have had in the industry only to apply that experience in creating a machine that [...]

"The Apollo program was a fraudulent NASA spaceflight endeavour which allegedly landed the first men on the moon." said the head of the Flat Earth Society who sat next to me on the frisbee pendulum ride. It was an unusual choice of an interview setting but he wanted to prove a point. While the others [...]
