-Metamorfoza unei coli de cerere-

Statea singur in camera semiobscura, asezat pe scaunul invelit in piele purpurie; lumina focului din semineu se juca cu trasaturile fetei imbatranite de ganduri. Varful stiloului dansa pe bucata de hartie, intinsa pe genunchi:

“Domnule D.,

Subsemnatul I. …”

Nu! De ce sa fie el nevoit sa ii faca ei o favoare…EI? – Ea, cea care nu da niciodata, dar ia intotdeauna; ea, cea care nu intreaba niciodata, dar primeste raspunsuri; ea, cea care…NU! Nu este ea cea din pricina careia el nu a mai fost capabil sa iasa din casa de zile intregi? Nu este EA cea care i-a smuls inima direct din piept si a stors-o de orice picatura de iubire ramasa inauntru? Fusese sigur zile in sir ca ea va fi motivul mortii sale premature.

- Ce ganduri infantile, isi zise el, parca abea trezindu-se dintr-un vis. Ce ganduri infantile! repeta el. Moarte? In nici un caz! Tinerete, frumusete, inteligenta, avere – toate imi apartin si toate fac parte din viata, nu din moarte! Ce ganduri infantile!

Aratatorul mainii drepte se departa de degetul mijlociu; stiloul lovi pamantul.

Dintr-o strangere de pumn, bucata maronie de hartie se transforma intr-un mic bulgare sifonat, care, parca prinzand aripi, zbura pana ce atinse flacarile vesele ale semineului. Surprins de caldura cu care fusese primit, bulgarele se rusina si se facu mic…mic…cenusa. In acel moment focul se inteti, iar lumina imprastiata in incapere deveni mai puternica.

- Traiesc! Exclama cel al carui mana aruncase hartia mototolita in mijlocul flacarilor. Am renascut! Ca un Phoenix…din propria cenusa! Traiesc din nou!

In zorii urmatoarei zile menajera intra in camera si gasi stapanul casei…mort.

In poalele trupului neinsufletit se afla o bucata de hartie, pe care erau scrijelite urmatoarele cuvinte:

“ 'Domnule' Dumnezeu ,

Subsemnatul I., as dori sa Va rog sa imi acordati

dreptul de a pune capat suferintei mele aici si acum!”

-EgalitatE-

Te admir,
te ador-
totul de la distanta, desigur.
Nu te pot avea,
nu iti pot starni interesul.
Nu voi fi niciodata importanta in ochii tai.
Tu-idolul meu.
Eu-nimeniul tau.
Idolul tau-mai presus
decat orice este bun sau rau.
Tu-zeitate.
Eu-banalitate.
Geniul tau ma atrage,
ma fascineaza.
Nivelul meu te lasa indiferent,
te indeparteaza.
Totusi, exista banalitate mai banala
decat banalitatea mea,
si geniu mai genial
decat genialitatea ta.
Astfel, avem ceva in comun:
Eu-geniala prin banalitatea mea.
Tu-banal prin genialitatea ta.
-ambii mintiti de catre mentalitate.

-Saturday Night Fry.-


Today's topic:Stephen Fry.

'Who on earth is this Stephen Fry figure?'-You might ask(especially if you live in Romania, as I do). Here are the first things one should know about him:

'Stephen John Fry (born 24 August 1957) is an English humorist, writer, wit, actor, novelist, filmmaker and television presenter.' (Wikipedia)

...but he also happens to be one of the people I admire, one of the people I would just looove to meet(although I know that will never happen, for who would ever come to Romania?! And if so, who am I to even get the pleasure of HIM talking to me?!).

Why I admire him? Many reasons, I guess. I find him brilliant! I could listen to him talk for hours-not only because of the things he says, but also because of the way he says them!-AND he also writes the most genious essays(I might be wrong on this one, but I know I love them!). Actually, there is nothing he doesn't do.

So, if any of you would like to find out more about him, you could just Google him up...or try YouTube.

P.S.:The picture you see on your right is one of my drawings(if you find it grotesque, I apologise, for I'm not the best portrayer I've ever met!) of Stephen Fry.

Oldies but Goldies.



One of my addictions(alongside eating, sleeping, smoking and reading Stephen Fry's blessays):painting.

Here's one of my older paintings, but one of my personal favourites.

Cherries!


'All Art is quite useless'(Oscar Wilde). Now,isn't that just sooo true?!! But still, I can't help wondering what the world would be without it; Art stimulates our senses, does it not? And what wonderful a thing it is to feel!: happiness, sadness, fear, pleasure, disappiontment, excitement-all these and many more, sometimes even 'mixtures' of the ones mentioned above.

So, here I am thinking about all this when...what do you know?! I get the inexplicable urge to find a brush and some water-colours...and paint! PAINT! But no! Paper just isn't good enough for me anymore! What to do,what to do...?! After half an hour of continuous search for the 'perfect canvas', I find a piece of wood(probably the bottom of an 'x-drawer', belonging to one of our 'x-wardrobes'). 'This is so crazy' I think to myself, 'it just might work!'.

Two hours, one exhausted brush, three colour-tubes and a satisfied artist later: VOILA!-cherries!
