Poetry
POETRY / A childhood memory
Dust patterns have gathered around my landline phone, huddling around the maroon. my fingerprints take some dust off of it, and they rejoice.
POETRY / Anonto prem
I wove necklaces of lyrics/ Which you'd wear beautifully
POETRY / Shedin dujone dulachinu bone
You know how that day the wind brought out/ The crazy thoughts I had in me all the while.
POETRY / Je chilo amar shopnocharini
You called me close in the moments of grace/ Veiling my delicate senses
POETRY / A building, a tree, and a kid
Buckets of water I pour on my head; my vision gets blurry./ "The blurrier, the merrier", my mother said.
POETRY / Narcolepsy days
For poet Abul Hasan Neither the pen nor the camera has changed
POETRY / Saree
The yard in this noontime is buzzing with/ The white aroma of the guava flower
POETRY / Heartache
I’m going through a heartbreak
REFLECTION / The endless scream
A reflection on Mahmoud Darwish’s 'A River Dies of Thirst: Diaries' (first published by Archipelago in 2009)

Cyan is my name when I talk about you
I'm tired of living with this nagging thought that we'll cross paths someday, /You and I
