      Summer: A Love Story

      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

      Quote of the day:

      It rains inside Human eyes … Beauty rain!

      As I walk I collect those drops. Do you?

      A Letter of Beauty

      On feeling Beauty why do I remember you?

      I went to the sky, that’s why!

      You Love night sky, that’s why!

      When you decorated me with pain,

      Only night sky was my friend.

      That infinite sky shed tears for me.

      O innumerable stars! Remember me again.

      Write me a letter from time to time.

      Speak, if you wish!

      On watching Beauty why do I feel pain?

      When nobody cries for none,

      That gloomy sky sheds tears for me!

      A Riven Leaf

      A shadow keeps dancing around me.

      A ripped leaf—a shredded country

      Keeps dancing and girdles around me.

      What is this Delta Bengal?

      This Delta Bengal is a country of the grave.

      This Delta Bengal is a country of negligence,

      Bought against the exorbitant price of blood.

      This Delta Bengal is a country of the bloodsucking bug.

      This Delta Bengal is a country of extirpation,

      Thousand times in a single lifetime without rehabilitation.

      This Delta Bengal is a country of the prophetic speech of the

      Masquerader devout.

      This Delta Bengal is a land of the inferior tout.

      This Delta Bengal is a land of the rapacious plutocrats.

      This Delta Bengal is a land of the concubines.

      This Delta Bengal is a land of the perverted males

      Lying on the wenches on a broken wood.
