Gazing at the drowning sun
I lost my worldly senses and vision,
Drifting aloft on the canoe of sinusoid
Reached the realm of unfathomable void.
A pebble pecked at my rivulet of thought
Concentric rings rippled and bulged,
A flashback mirrored into my mind
Fragmentary, fleeting and unkind.
The darkness crowned my vision soon
Feeling the pierce of bottomless, hollow wound,
Yet I groped to stretch my distressed wings
More to sink and swoon in utter sufferings.
An influx of pain
inside the magma chamber heaves,
intrinsic pangs
resonating, pulsating deep,
sinks soon into my crust
of extinct thought.
Words remained
like dormant lava, viscosed
hardened, stiff and benign
for years and years inside.
Yet searching endlessly
a trail to let out passion.
Will the crater ever erupt
an infinitesimal
fissure on my cardiac fence
never to be witnessed
untold, unattended, veiled.
a drill on the scar
rises a twister
innumerable concentric rings
rippled; tunes of bilaskhani
smeared me all of a sudden,
sprawled like a pinned butterfly
never, never to spread
her colors of mist in the sky.
Chotobelay theke aami onke kacha, khub dukkho, ar karo-r sathe porichoy hole je onke bhalo durbol hoye
Sholo by sholor ishkul ghorer chhobi bheshey othey

proshno uttorer khelay peto tokhon ghobhir ek jora chokh ke
Dui-ye dui-ye char- ei to byas, ar amay pai ke?
Baba bolten- kokha re jibone boro hotey

Mone pore sedin bishwas kore chhilam
Praner katha bolbo bole kachhe deke nilam
Dam na diye firiye nile mukh obtruse angle-y!

Chai boro hotey chai sudhui hiseb melatey

Tabu bolun to hisab melena keno aj?

Sapnoi mon chay sudhu, sudhu sahoj ek samadhan
Ja khuje pele-i hobe sob mushkil asaan!
raindrops formed shapes on my window,
strange shapes
the water took a meandering path
and lost its way
i sat motionless watching its flow
i felt compelled to go up and assist
the drops to find its true destiny..the river
yet a strange calmness made me sit still
i saw the water droplets took a meandering path
and lost its way.............
an excavation performed
with finesse,
not even a drop of red
dribbled.
a kaleidoscope flashed
a galore of breathless
scattered, splattered images.
the grating memories
faded soon in the horizon.
stupefied I stood upon
few remnants of thoughts,
spot a wall engraved
with deep, deep scuff
etched long, long back.
Countless pearls of rain splashed…
As if droplets of multifarious hues
fell on my forehead, eyes-lashes, orifice…
overwhelmed, unfolded its colors;
A matrix, a flux, a rainbow on my canvas.
Like a flowing river I lie
Under the Aashad sky
my thirst to quench with more and more....
And yet never, never a single bead
Rain upon my parched lips!
