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)...

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...

Yellow moons

Yellow moons at nighttime, Beyond the windows loom Stretch along and rise to bloom Flooding streets and singing rhyme. Downtown trains are full tonight. White pale girls try hard  Their world shy discard  Cross pale and dull the light. Like crows wave hands  Uneasy scatter and chat around Watch the light now profound. But proudly keep their stands. Nothing captures their heart. Like thorns they are - without a rose. Oh, if I were the one they choose I would span silent the dark. I know that window, I know it's late I know the stairs and the doorway I stand by the light at the four-way I walk down past the gate and wait. Will I see her eyes tonight? From a downtown train A girl among many faces, insane Will I catch her slight dim sight? Oh my dreams, if she falls away, Am I going alone nowhere? Following the moon's glare I lonely wait - watch the train stay. -------------- PS. " Downtown Train" is one of my favourite songs. Tom Waits’ voice, or Rod Stewart’s voice sing...

Lietuviško skausmo kultūra

  Gyvenu Lietuvoje jau keletą metų. Vertinu daug dalykų Lietuvoje. Ypač įdomūs man pasirodė žmonės. Mano nuomone, tai žmonės - ypač kilę iš kaimo vietovių, kurie sudaro daugumą - giliai įsišakniję skausmo kultūroje. Čia dalinuosi savo pastebėjimais, kurie gali būti neteisingi. Jei mano pastebėjimai neteisingi, prašau juos laikyti išoriniais — užsieniečio iš kitos kultūros žvilgsnio pastebėjimais Pagarba kitam paprastai matuojama laisve : „Kiek toli galiu peržengti savo laisvę, netapdamas problema kitam?“  Lietuvoje šis matas tampa kitu klausimu: „Kiek toli galiu peržengti savo skausmo slenkstį, kad mano skausmas netaptų problema kitam?“ Lietuviška kultūra yra giliai panirusi į skausmo viziją. Taip nutiko dėl daugelio priežasčių, tačiau svarbiausia, mano akimis, yra viena: lietuvis žmogus yra užsidaręs savyje - izoliuota, uždara ir beveik neįveikiama monada. Lietuvis žmogus turi savo tapatybę, bet ją visada sieja su dominuojančia viešąja mintimi. Jis eina savo keliu, bet visada...
