Echoes Between “I” and Time
A poetic descent into the silence between self and eternity.
I feel heavenly when I could be “I”
if in abstraction to realm and claim;
in the other hand, I raise the wine and say:
where is my mind?
Sing — a song by a bird who lost his chord,
a tiger on view, haunting me,
my eyes gazed like a veil,
a drop of water mixed with one of tears,
my toxic treat.
Which one could survive without him gain!
as much as the creepers run on stream,
not of consciousness,
but instead, a loop with time,
dancing with places
as if they had never been .
Beneath those eyes
a potion of love,
whispered by the lips of a witch .
that’s why I always look further,
beyond her lovely soul,
inside her mind,
as a symbol she could never reach,
ever and over time.
It’s my horrible way,
my faithful road,
still maximizing the infinite
by a piece of silver ,
as they said, Judas once betrayed Jesus for silver,
and for me,
a silver is the cause of pain.
And if you ask me :
which way I choose my suffer and pain?
A needle or a pen?

Lost Between Mirrors and Time
Here Luccian Layth is reflecting on what the self may be re-refracted in its mirror, between trial and betrayal, between inner death and inner light, the existential question takes place towards eternity, nothingness, and the Creator. It is a poetic excursion, between suspicion and definite affirmation, between obscurity and radiance, in which the way itself is the creature and the creature is the way.

How to Choose the Right AI SEO team for Your Business?
The first pitch usually sounds convincing. Charts showing traffic curves. Screenshots of dashboards filled with scores and predictions. Promises of faster rankings driven by automation. For many businesses, this is where confusion begins. AI has entered SEO quietly and then all at once, and the line between genuine capability and surface-level tooling has become hard to see.

Fair Exchange, No Robberies
Dark Memoirs - Index There are at least two kinds of people in the world: those who write this half-arsed kind of intro to a story that looks to separate the rare and the norm, and those who realise it's an overused framing device and don't.
