I was walking out of the house fiddling with the idea that a stray bullet, from nowhere, might pierce my heart. As I stepped out, I placed my right hand on my left breast and began tapping my index and middle fingers in rapid successions. Looking around, I saw that there were scantily scattered people,Continue reading “THE BULLET”

THE DANCE
The dance was not one of the trending dance moves; she aptly got into the traditional African dance, bending and jerking her back to and fro.

BOOKS
Smell and Colour I’d be rather attracted to a book with brown pages than to one with pages of white colour or any other colour. There’s this smell the brown pages smell of. It’s not malodorous, and it’s not fragrant. A smell in-between. When I find a book of like this, I am delighted toContinue reading “BOOKS”
