Phantom Soul


-------------------------------
I am not at all getting where (in your home) the phantom soul is seated but that is totally in line with the title and the nature of the composition.

Sawaal ye hai ki soul equal to phantom or photo equal to soul of phantom?

Vaise hamein donon se bhi ethiraj nhain hai.

Kyunki sansaar ki har shay ka itna hi fasaana hai 
ik dhundh se aana hai ik dhundh mein jaana hai

Us dhundh ke aage peeche ya baaju mein kuchh aur samajhne ki koshish kee to dhoondhte reh jaaoge.

What a composition!!!
Everything is lit up and everything is throwing a shadow except the phantom who is a shadow itself or the soul of a shadow and therefore reality thrice removed.
The door, the light the book shelf (?) seem to be a constricted space but also several self contained worlds available to the phantom.
So many right angles in a world where nothing else is right.

To my biased (in favour) eye umbra penumbra and antumbra are in a slow waltz so the composition is not as grim as it may seem at a casual glance.

Behtareen
