Abdus Selim’s translation and compilation is a time machine for all of us living in the new age, where poems have become much neutered.
The prestigious Kali O Kalam Torun Kabi O Lekhak Puroshkar 2022 was conferred on January 28 at an award ceremony at Bengal Shilpalay in Dhanmondi, Dhaka.
Someday, I will write about those places, the cities, monuments, and faces.
Break me into numbers and spirals, and blood and flesh make me all that I don't wish to be.
Haiku is a poem in three lines that captures the image of a single moment in the reader’s mind.
You’re sitting on the couch/ And you’re tapping your feet at 135 miles per hour/ You’re waiting for something to happen
On a Thursday, I went back home, and I took a walk./ On the sidewalk, I saw a splash of maroon on a grey block.
The only thing that disregards - Is that you won’t be there to
Delicate like butterfly wings, And yet as strong as boulders Her mind is a divine place, Eternal peace on her shoulders.

The only thing that disregards - Is that you won’t be there to
Showers and storms give way To a surge of sunlight A fragrance of hope floats in On morning breeze
Delicate like butterfly wings, And yet as strong as boulders Her mind is a divine place, Eternal peace on her shoulders.
