Like A Red Rose

#This29th

Beauty like the red rose

brimming; A scene, spectacular to behold.

Enchanting, withholding but, pulling close

My lady, I see  like the blossomed red rose

In eyes, precious. A smile pure gold,

Seems a fairy tale, in a joyous and dreamy abode.

Lose a beat or two( O! Yes!) as she looks my way

My lady, a beauty ,more than a blossomed rose.

ISTP - The Mechanics : Typealyzer Speaks

Another fun thing for a blogger to explore online is www.typealyzer.com. The analysis results in the determination of the Myers-Briggs type of the author. The results from my blog showed me to be the ISTP - The Mechanics.

The validity of the results are questionable (of course!) , but, well, they compare me to the likes of the famous Steve Jobs and Michael Jordan and I am not complaining. As for the qualities mentioned, we'll have to wait till N. verifies them.

Inhuman

Dilapidated, an ugly scar cut into her being,

Polluted, by shapeless and grey venom ,

Torn, in part and as a whole in soul,

Screaming -  poisoned by the holy serum.

The rut and rust crawling on her body,

Insects drawn to foul and filth.

A distant scream, not one , nor two,

to survive, to die, to squander all tilth.

No rush to aid, but blood sucking termites,

'Have mercy on my soul'  unnoticed from her lips,

Falls on ears deaf and sound.

'Kill me slowly as you murder my daughters' her heart rips.

The motherland cries, the mother - she dies,

Each moment, each time a cruel blow fells a daughter.

Society reeks of inhuman waste , a sorry cry

for the men and women who consider humans meat and fodder.

Be it the December gang rape case , or any other such act of cruelty, society as we know it is, at the brink of an end. It is not such cases that should serve as examples to open our eyes. The society is ours - yours and mine and therein lies our duty to stop such inhuman actions.  To see news paper headlines speak of nothing else but rape and such gruesome horrors as female foeticide, infanticide and such unspeakable deeds shows the lack of humanity. I just wish we were better. I just we were good enough to be called 'humans'.

My view after I saw an entire side in the online TOI page filled with rape cases from top to bottom an hour back.

La Luna - My Muse

Ever since I managed to get a decent camera I have been looking for subjects to capture with my camera. In my rather fruitful search, I have encountered many objects to point and shoot with my device but none has captured my imagination as vividly as moon - la luna . 

Of course, I do not have a camera that rivals the ones used by the photographers on National Geographic, nor do I have a DSLR or even a semi-DSLR. Presented below is a collection of the shutter capture from my beloved Nikon.

The Yellow Moon, my first capture

The Silver Neighbour

Before Dawn (captured at 5 am)

Through the clouds in the evening!

The evening apparition!

As we enter the clutches of darkness

Captures from the Lunar Eclipse in June 2012

 

Among the dark clouds, a black and white study

Shaking clear of the clouds

Super moon, June 2013

In silver glow, a beauty shines

Fills the heaven in colours divine

Completes Gaia, this life sublime

The wonders of nature, la luna, to capture is mine!

Pick up lines by an Electrical Engineer - The Use-Me-Nots

Many a time one loses oneself in the world of one's work and passion and ends up interlinking it to one's life outside. Though, a guitar slung around the shoulder can bolster your chances at getting a girl ( I think it may be a big misconception, but I owe this observation to the general perception), or a rant in the higher order might score some goodie points, but, adding electrical engineering to flirting (and creating electro-flirting) can be dangerous (in orders of MegaDumboElectroVolts or MDEVs) if you happen to use pick up lines like the ones mentioned below :

#1 You give me shocks just like a 440 V bus-bar.

#2 You are a 1200 KV line girl, you have the potential to be my wife.

#3 Baby your ass is rounder than a motor's rotor.

#4 You are like a 250 W halogen, you brighten my world.

#5 Baby you improve my power factor better than a synchronous condenser.

#6 Are you E.H.V.? Cuz I have corona discharge around you.

#7 I am an electrical engineer, I can fix your sho(r)ts.

#8 Baby are you the secondary winding to my transformer, I feel magnetically coupled to you.

#9 You and I are so perfect, want to make a complete circuit?

#10 If you were a burger at McDonald's, you would be the new McShock.

#11 You are my AA battery, you charge me up.

#12 Baby your hair are like the windings distributed on the armature of my motor.

#13 I think I know the wavelengths you emit, cuz the length of the antenna should be λ/4.

#14 No stock-bridge damper can control me, cuz you darling cause vibrations on 'my power line' like no one else.

#15 You and I - in a cascade or cascode on the silicon bed? You decide.

#16 Can I earth you? You seem to be at a high potential.

#17 You are the cause of my dielectric breakdown, cz you bring sparks in my life.

#18 You are the perfect switch. You turn me on.

#19 You are the resonant frequency to my band pass filter.

#20  Easy on the current darling, the I²R losses leave me weak.

I rest my case!
