Stephen Dedalus- The Anarchist

My name is Stephen Dedalus. I am a hawk within myself, a creature bound to the human form, yet tethered to something greater. My wings are magnificent and powerful, capable of navigating even the most violent and unpredictable tempests of existence. In the face of these storms, I will never lose my way. The firmament, that eternal expanse of spotless sky, does not weigh my heart with its monstrous gravity.
Gravity. What a profound phenomenon! It anchors everything, yet it also gives meaning to all that exists. Gravity shapes us, gives us life, love, and lust. It makes time and space possible, and in its absence, existence would fragment into endless, uncountable particles of matter. Without gravity, life itself would cease to be, and even death would be impossible. How could I not fall in love with it?
I am an anarchist. Not in the political sense, but in a deeply personal way. The adventure of life is enough to keep me enthralled with the transient nature of our existence. I have no illusions about how vast and infinite my potential may be, but I understand that I do not yet know the full extent of it. I do not speak much. I do not seek the company of others, for my circle is small. My feelings are intimate, and they belong only to me. Love, however, is the exception—it transcends the personal and binds me to the world.
I dance. I sing. I live, even in the darkest and most painful moments of my journey. I cry when I need to. In the grand theater of life, I find it exhilarating to witness the human carnival in all its myriad forms—its beautiful, grotesque, and unnameable transformations. Life, I’ve learned, is a wild dragon, a beast spitting fire and fury. Taming it is a challenge, but I, a warrior, am ready for the adventure. I carry all the weapons I need, and I wield them when the time comes. The people I meet, the choices I make, the places I go, the karma I accumulate—each is a weapon in its own right.
My myth is metafictional. I was born in the mind of a man and inscribed into the eternal pages of thought. People think of me, and in doing so, they become like me—climbing the stairways of their own consciousness toward uncharted horizons. You can find me everywhere: in universities, libraries, squares, churches, playhouses, asylums, penitentiaries, monasteries, brothels, warfields, and cemeteries.
Transformation does not diminish my essence. I am timeless, existing beyond the boundaries of dimension, where gravity ceases to exist. In that place, I dissolve into pure energy, infinite and ever-present.

At every corner, she glimpsed him. Through the mist, she saw his figure, looking at her, the love in his eyes never fading. She tightened her grip on 'his' hand, her love, and glanced back. Sometimes she wonders, was it true? What he believed in. Whether she was his princess. But, she lost that moment. And she lived in her present, and the past, a mirage. Nothing could change her love for 'him'. She looked into 'his' eyes and all her inhibitions disappeared. She didn't hear the soft crunch of leaves behind her. She was too occupied with her love, her beliefs, with 'him'. She didn't see him steal glances at her. And sometimes, he lost her again, in the mist, in the blur, in the obscurity.  But he always found her, for his love for her burned in his heart, a bright flame. She gave him the key to his freedom, but he flung it away. He chose his way of life, he wanted to chase her forever. He would never give up. His incessant pursuit fascinated her, ...

In the Fabric of Evolution

Nothing was left untouched. Every stone was overturned, every grain of sand displaced. The monstrous beauty of the Earth transforming into a perfect haven for living organisms was a grand saga of evolution—an orchestration by the Unknown. As a child then, and an adult now, my timeless reverie has been to envision this orchestration—to witness how the Earth journeyed from the most hostile to the most hospitable. I have, time and again, tried to comprehend evolution and the mysterious forces that harmonized to weave the very fabric of life. As I grew, I found myself entangled in the same fabric of evolution—fulfilling its purpose. I began to see how I, too, evolved through the people who crossed my path, the events that unfolded, and the moments that shaped me. Everything seemed to work in silent precision, scripting the being I was meant to become. Should I resist it—or embrace it? I find resistance meaningless, for everything appears perfectly programmed by time and space. Can I truly ...

WE danced till the world slipped into an oblivion of our presence.  WE drank wine till the sun turned black.   WE forgot who we were and transformed into the purest form of creation.  I knew, then, I died and reincarnated into all of your desires, happiness, sorrows, fears, ecstasy, and forms of beings.  “Where will you find me after?” your lips quivered.  “You are everywhere” I said.
