Fingers and the Lens

 


Opening the closed eye,

the gentle finger caressed the frame

Travelling through the captured memories,

a goofy grin was always plastered.

Rummaging through the storage unit,

the brown orbs turned glassy

Down the lane, the beholder of the orbs never knew any angle,

When moments turned blurry,

the rough finger brushed against the delete button.


Somewhere in between, there was a glue

A glue in which her fingers were stuck

Even after removing them,

her fingers were numb

Her fingers were her weakness

But when her fingers started making crescents,

Rather than capturing them,

They experienced a tough time!

When the fingers lost their confidence,

her mind couldn't gather enough strength to make a move.

The fingers worked for every function 

Every function other than clicking the button.


Even after that phase, years passed,

Maybe I was wrong,

Now the mind didn't have enough strength

But the fingers were finding their pace

Its pace to retrieve me and

I was deeply into it than ever before

Capturing different Phases of the Moon,

Capturing small things,

there was a smile that couldn't be given by big things.



"Sometimes, neither are things meant to be in the right place nor do some things have importance in our life."

MOCKINGJAY- HUNGER GAMES 3

  Starting off where it left, Katniss returns again with the calculations of loss, her revenge as a deranged hermit. After the Quarter Quell, we see a different Mockinjay facing her past and her present altogether while sacrificing her future for Peeta who hasn’t been since they had been taken away. All the districts have been in rebellion and when she walks through her district where everything has changed into ashes, a prominent thing evokes fear yet becomes one of the steps in taking the decision to become the ‘Mockingjay’. Placing a few conditions, the last condition she places is not received with criticism but rather a grin that captures all of them. The further accomplices of hers and different memories revoked by them sets out a poignant sense of survival and seriousness. But when Peeta is rescued by Gale and others, all he does it to grab Katniss’s throat! In the last instalment of Hunger Games, Susanne Collins explores more humanism, emotions, decisions and a pinch of...

The Girl On The Train

  It starts off like a whisper of sounds telling the reader, or rather reminding the reader to be careful of Rachel. The delusional and alcoholic character stays as a rotten flower who has been caught up in a labyrinth of her own. Cheated by her husband, caught in a web of lies, unable to conceive, divorced by her husband, being a terminated employee, her ex-husband, new wife and their child in their same house were a long list of what she had lost through the last two years. These plethora of reasons made her stomach turn and her fingers itch when alcohol was denied. But some things of her routine didn’t change due to her best friend who was concerned about her. Travelling like she used to, walking around the streets, her routine goes off like any other work day, when she had a job. Her only relief was the train which carried her back and forth, showing the greenery and scenery. Peeping into a happy person’s life would be a great job if one didn’t have and with a sadistic life li...

The Art and the Artist - Can we separate both of these?

(Picture Credits: AI) It is one of the perplexing questions that many people have pondered and debated recently due to various allegations and rising issues. Art is not just paint on a canvas. It is an umbrella term for all types of entertainment that bring pleasure, such as books, graffiti, different forms of visual entertainment, music, travel, solitude, and more. These vary in their forms, styles, and languages. Just as art reflects the ideas and stories of the age and place it originates from, it has also expanded beyond reality. We now explore futuristic arts that tell stories of the future, modeled with attitudes from the past, present, and what the future might hold. Sometimes, this is quite ambiguous. On the other hand, the artist exists beyond the frame in which the person fits. An artist can range from a rebellious rebel to a naive passive character, and even include the grayer shades of humanity. It is fluid, and there is a life for the person beyond art, one that we sometim...
