An unexpected attraction (First part)



He remembered, that it was energy. He had no other words to mean it.
He was sitting but he felt like a strong energy coming from him and reaching him. He felt his eyes on him. Almost felt them burning his back. He truly sensed it.
It was annoying. Why is he interested in me?
They didn't look at each other. They pretended, both, not to look at each other.
In the end, he was disappointed when he was not there. When he arrived at that place and he didn't find him sitting at his usual seat in front of his computer he felt he was missing a part of his day. What he was doing he had no idea. But slowly, day after day he had become curious about what he was doing, what he was working on. A couple of times, he had been able to peek at the screen of his computer. Maybe he was working with Photoshop.
He always sat partnered with another guy. His boyfriend? He thought so, because sometimes they were joking and laughing very close. He probably was the female in the couple, because he had the look of a cunning slut. A scandalous look of a mischievous and scandalous slut.
Those days it was becoming hot and he was wearing a white cotton vest leaving his shoulders bare as a young slut.
That dragged him more to him, to desire that young slut.
That slut look-like amped up his prowess for that energy flowing between him and him.

He looked past him. In the opposite direction of him. Through the enormous windows facing the city, its roofs, the crossroads, the green trees...
Yes, it is energy. I have no other explanation. He thought.
They never spoke a word but he could almost sense it in the air the desire to talk and touch each other, and this surprised him.
That day he had foolishly thought that the Ikea space was empty, with a few people. It was Friday afternoon, 2 am.
The only seat free instead was in front of him. He hesitated. Then he decided not to sit there. He was surprised. He was a straight guy. How come he was attracted by another male?
He didn't find any reason. The only reason, he thought, to be taken into consideration, was the energy. That strong and inescapable energy had taken him off-guard.
But he resisted. He didn't give up.

TO BE CONTINUED (MAYBE)...

Poetry dwells near the divine light's breath

  The comparison between poetry and divine light that we have proposed HERE finds its perfect explanation in Saint Paul, Epistle to the Romans 1:19: τ ὸ γνωστὸν τοῦ θεοῦ φανερόν ἐστιν ἐν αὐτοῖς, ὁ θεὸς γὰρ αὐτοῖς ἐφανέρωσεν — “that which may be known of God has been made manifest in them (in men), for God has manifested it unto them”. Poetry unveils within the human being the need to be human, that is, the need for Beauty, the need to feel Beauty within oneself and alongside oneself; and this feeling is sustained by divine light. Since we are influenced by the Augustinian idea of saeculum , we hold that poetry belongs to the saeculum and therefore comes to a halt upon the threshold of divine light [I] without crossing it, though perceiving the light that lies beyond that threshold. We are led to that threshold by the human feeling of Beauty that dwells within us and guides us to that point: to that door which cannot be crossed in our human condition. And yet, the mere act of stan...

Similarities between Lithuanian, Sanskrit and Ancient Greek: the sigmatic future

by Fabrizio Ulivieri Lithuanian is the most archaic among all the Indo-European languages spoken today, and as a result it is very useful, indeed, indispensable in the study of Indo-European linguistics. The most important fact is that Lithuanian is not only very archaic, but still very much alive, i. e., it is spoken by about three and a half million people. It has a rich tradition in folklore, in literature, and it is used very successfully in all walks of modern life, including the most advanced scientific research. Forced by our interest for this piece of living archaism, we go deeper in our linguistic survey. One of the most noticeable similarities is the future (- sigmatic future -). Lithuanian has preserved a future tense from prehistoric times: it has one single form, e.g. kalbė-siu 'I will speak', etc. kalbė-si kalbė-s kalbė-sime kalbė-site kalbė-s This form kalbėsiu is made from the stem kalbė-(ti) 'to speak', plus the ancient stem-end...

L'ombra del dharma

  Può qualcuno nascondere la verità per tutta la sua vita  e ingannare sé e tutti gli altri?  Vi sono demoni nell'uomo, che vengono di lontano  - per linee di sangue e generazioni che,  se li ascolti, si fanno tuo dharma Se cerco di spiegare quello che eri Devo l' oltre e il prima guardare Dove cause ignote e foschi criteri Erano il karma del tuo andare. Di lí andavi larvato di nulla E mai il volto sincero mostravi. Di silenzio vivevi in una bolla Eppure libero a me sembravi. In pubblico e privato ti scindevi E disprezzavi me a te non pari Ma santo mi apparivi e tu sapevi. Del tuo dharma che adesso appari Eri schiavo - di quel lontano demone Tara remota e senza memoria Che nel sangue ti seguiva epigone E segnava immemore tua la storia.
