Stone Walls and Metal Gates

temporal: thank you; you say such nice things!

rozaiba: i was meaning to explain why i chose `huma` in a footnote. it slipped my mind. i was trying not to overwrite.

epiphany: wow! love your way with words

``In some void corner of some desolate space of our mind grows the tree of sentient enslavement. Liberty is the stray parasite shrub that encroaches up this tree`s bark and yearns to be.``

Our collective exuberant silences coldly hidden in our hearts beckon us to return to the secret hideouts we label home. All of creation begs a plea to return to their master abodes from which had sprung their individual and unique existences.

Why should Huma be any different?

In some void corner of some desolate space of our mind grows the tree of sentient enslavement. Liberty is the stray parasite shrub that encroaches up this tree`s bark and yearns to be.

Huma`s soul longed to be free, to return home, to find a way back. To be.

Good read. However, I was hoping there would be more done with the story. Particularly with the name `Huma` and the symbolisms it beckons.

storyteller:

…another powerfully dark story...…you remind me of jawahara’s stories in a certain sense……understated, subtle and without melodrama…captured the sadness of little huma well…

…interesting choice of name …huma

…digression: the name humayun comes from the same root!
