URBAN RENEWAL 

                    ~BY YUSEF KOMUNYAKAA

The sun slides down behind brick dust,   

today’s angle of life. Everything

melts, even when backbones   

are I-beams braced for impact.

Sequential sledgehammers fall, stone   

shaped into dry air

white soundsystem of loose metal   

under every footstep. 

Wrecking crews,

men unable to catch sparrows without breaking   

wings into splinters. Blues-horn

mercy. Bloodlines. Nothing   

but the white odor of absence.

The big iron ball   

swings, keeping time

to pigeons cooing in eaves   

as black feathers

float on to blueprint   

parking lots.

the light

The light above your head, watches you everyday.

lighting your day, night and life.

Cause even when it rains outside
There is light
Even when you cry all night
Your alright
Even when you loose your way
You'll get through
Cause there is someone watching over you

~ Yolanda Bloom

Speed Of Life.

The Speed Of Life

I sit and watch, 

The cars go by.

My life seems, 

So motionless.

Standing still, 

But moving so fast.

Faster than the speed of light, 

Is the speed of life. 

                               

                                                    ~Jamie Collins

Held my camera after a long time to see that the life in the city has been moving at light speeds. A view of the traffic at 100 feet road Indira Nagar. 

The distortion in the image is intentional to get a hazy picture indicating the distortion in the minds.

P.S : no idea how many of you missed my this space.. but its good to be back and clicking :)

Flowers of Love

Well it ain't a gonna be as long now as it has been
I got a feelin' that me and love are in tune
And it ain't a gonna be as long now as it has been
Somewhere the flower of love is waitin' to bloom

Sunshine and laughter just over the hill all I got to do is climb
Someone is waitin' true love to give waiting over on the other side

it ain't a gonna be as long now as it has been
Somewhere the flower of love is waitin' to bloom

~ Lynn Anderson from Flowers of love

the bird

"I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up DOES rejoice. Still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone."

Many know this quote is from a cult classic Hollywood movie "Shawshank Redemption".

 But Few know that the story was based from a novella called Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption by Stephen King, from his collection Different Seasons (1982). It was adapted for the screen in 1994 as The Shawshank Redemption, which was nominated for seven Academy Awards in 1994, including Best Picture
