n emphasising each word as his hands moved in a slow rhythm as if practising a part in a play can i help you asked tayyib do you need anything sunlight and shadow we need the voice was high pitched and tayyib winced clearly uncomfortable and in a hurry to get back tayyib began to walk away from the man uh ok have a good day he said forcing a smile as he hurried back the city holds some real crazies he thought the following week the newly tarred palm lined road was inaugurated by a government official suited and booted and chuffed with importance the builder was giving a speech this road he claimed would not be just for the benefit of owners of the apartments but as an act of goodwill to the public some of the budget for making this road will go into re doing a service road nearby this would mean he said a smoother journey for the everyday office goer who thanks to this would be reaching home earlier he sounded very pleased with himself tayyib was annoyed the inauguration was loud and as expected performative cracker waste littered the road there was little point in staying inside and working with all this disturbance he may as well take his break now he thought he walked out and having nothing in particular to do watched the functions that followed the inauguration we come from sunlight and shadow that voice again tayyib thought he felt unsettled this frail small man with his rhythmic movements and stilted speech what did he want why was he here again tayyib frowned as he looked at the man his clothes his expression theatrical that was about the only way to describe it like he was playing a character blue trousers too long too loose a tie and a bow green both slightly tattered both ever so lopsided an orange checked shirt with buttons just a bit out of alignment a pink coat black socks and black shoes laces of which are tightly drawn a hat frayed nondescript where s your pocket watch waif man where s your monocle thought tayyib trying not to smile instead he said what do you mean by coming from sunlight and shadow the man took his hand and started walking taken by surprise tayyib stumbled at first and then as if his will had been taken away he began to walk alongside in moments he found himself out of breath how was it possible that this tiny man walked so lightly and so fast while holding him so firmly around him everything begins to blur he can no longer feel his feet the wind hits and burns his cheeks he is spinning he is going to faint he thinks city sounds fade there s a rustling a whooshing birdsong another sound a low hum accompanied by a visceral sensation almost like electricity moving from outwards to deep within his body he can hear his blood rush through a thousand veins his heartbeat primordial beats deafeningly or could it be a drum beating somewhere maybe at the inauguration his thoughts are a whirl drums mimic heartbeats the thought floats up from the jetsam of memory then everything turns black there s no sound everything is still this is what death feels like i am dead he thinks he feels himself returning to something some awareness something is clearing he opens his eyes around him everything is unfamiliar familiar something someone that must also be the waif man stands in front of him the thing is both he thinks both waif man and something undefinable but he cannot see where this thing this creature begins or where the waif man ends they are just bursts of colour everchanging everything that is the creature man moves never staying at one place the mouth eyes nose hands feet hair it is a dance he thinks this is a dance this creature man is dancing as the creature man dances tayyib sees worlds being created a macrocosm he sees each detail of everything that populates these created worlds a microcosm he sees his world earth she s so blue she s so beautiful he sees feather tips of each bird the pollen on each flower the roar of tigers the yawn of a mouse he sees canopies of trees covering an ancient planet he sees civilisations from the moment of their birth to the moment of their destruction and everything after he sees the after of beauty the dancing becomes frenzied the creature man and earth become one she s dying the thought makes him panic and this creature man cannot save her i am a creature of sunlight and shadow the balance it is a statement of finality he sees earth so blue so beautiful turn colourless ashen and with her this being of dance and light fades he opens his eyes the waif man is holding his hand back to being a caricature sunlight and shadow the balance he says as his voice fades away and then tayyib knows the balance is broken that was the last dance he looks at the grand apartment at the perfect road and at the tall glass buildings around their glare obscuring the sky the palm trees with their wilting fonds the trees that were gone now the city that was dead now and he lets out a scream loud impotent he picks up a bit of concrete from a pile that is still to be cleared he runs towards the newly built apartments and with all his might hurls it at its italian glass entrance door he laughs as the glass shatters the world spins then stops posted by yasmine claire at 1 48 am no comments thursday july 02 2020 borderland for mr moolchand jain the borderland begins two streets after his where narrow alleyways are filled with two wheelers children play with marbles and spices are left out to dry in the tiny space between the gates and entrance doors of homes for mrs sudhakar the borderland begins from mr moolchand jain s street full of those one storey small time shop owner s homes she says and shudders in horror at the thought of living there she s on a long phone call with her daughter in the usa her mind drifts from the conversation to the silk curtains that need to be changed from his 14th floor living room mr jacob can see where his gated community ends and the borderland begins he shows off his view of a manicured park rows of palm trees and of the swimming pool something must be done about that eyesore he says pointing his face wrinkling to the land beyond the borderland every morning groups of women

tries to drown out the call to prayer by maulvi azeem ali she turns the knob of the mixie to full her hands vibrate as she holds the lid closed even now after years she doesn t know how long the prayer runs so her mixie whirls till mr sharma asks if a man can get coffee in this house he has to tap her shoulder and gesticulate can t you ask your friend mr abbas to talk to this maulvi at least he can reduce the volume who wants to hear his cranky old voice every morning i am disturbed somehow i can tolerate it in the afternoon and evening but morning is too much she grumbles mr sharma drinks his coffee and reads the paper fourteen people die in anti caa protests in delhi he announces to no one in particular with one last slurp from the coffee mug he gets up and walks towards his charging cell phone scrolls through family whatsapp groups announces that smriti is still dating that christian boy my poor sister having to cope with her heart patient husband and a troublesome

whispered hopes that now may dare see fruition then you remembered his burning eyes his queen s half formed smile and her promise seeds and seasons light and dark despair and hope longing and fulfilment and you wondered endless endless deep so deep down here where everyone sleeps does she keep awake longing is that why eurydice shimmering dissolving sleeping shade was spared and made to follow you orpheus with a promise you knew you d never keep is that why when she walked thorough lands now familiar towards another now forgotten in a moment you knew where her heart lay and turned
