    About this ebook

    Arunangshu Paul has been living, in his own words, a mundane nine to seven existence for a major part of his life as a small cog in the big wheel of financial markets. The creative side of his persona is, at the same time, restorative and cathartic for him. Writing poetry and stories has been his hobby since a very young age. He is an active social-media commentator and blogger. This is his first attempt to bring forth his feelings and emotions through a collection of poetry. The author believes in the transient nature of life and this encourages him to explore the relations that bind us with each other.

      Apr 20, 2021

      It is a squalid time. The body grows tired of being a body. Sweat. Always. A thin film of it on the skin. Do not say dewy. Do not say glisten. I dream of endless green. Of wet. Of rain hammering the Earth. Of buds sprouting. I want to insist on life
