অভিব্যক্তি

--------------------------------------------

গামছার মতন কাচা শরীর নিংড়ে
দড়িতে টানটান ঝুলে আছে
আমাদের চুমুর আতশবাজি
যা ট্রেনের সাথে সমান্তরাল গতিপথে
ছুটতো, আজ এক জাহাজের ভুলে
ছিদ্রপথগুলি দিয়ে গভীরে ডুবেছে।
মনে হয়, সমুদ্রতটে শুধু গর্জন বিক্ষিপ্তহারে
ওঠানামা করছে। সিক্ত ঠোঁটের বিলীন শান্তির
জীবন মাইলব্যাপী সিলিকা সম্বল করে
গার্হস্থ্য মেঝের মতো ধুয়েমুছে সাফ করে যাচ্ছে
নিত্যদিন।

Looking at the hat

And the wind walked in front like time. Homework was undone for long. And evening bells kept on talking to the last trace of light. It was important since a flower was about to come. This was the message from smell. Like a butterfly it goes and enters spring. Where are those books? After school, college they went to the library and the librarian went for holiday hoping that sea had not retired so far, and in Vietnam there was a small hut open for likeminded strangers. Time always travels away from it and further towards its inside and when I saw Chen, I remembered May, first. Now I remember that the librarian was calculating crosswords and suddenly he found the name Suzanne. And am sure the racks for old newspapers like always listen to raindrops, when those old papers are wet. I was travelling in a bus to university and it was clear by then. Economics is not a positive science, not even aesthetic science. So I saw Chen seated on a rock. Chen must have known that there is a relation be...

There is no start. So the end is also meaningless. My life is more a metaphor than a visual thing. And it is for this reason I touched it by dint of metaphors…that is my life itself. Most of us remain in a state of material inertia unless there is a flash of blue light that burns the sleeping body and let soul look at it in its own eyes. So I woke up one night or was I still sleeping? And I went into another sleep, another awakening in another sleep. The ether always hits soul like a blue wave…the same way I was bathing in a river. I guess life is a river that merges with its own longing for ethereal streams. I often watched the sky, space, stars in those eyes that seek bathing in light, breeze and all the ethereal charms…So I needed metaphors, I needed constant excitement, flashes, sparks. I was always interpreted as mysterious, arrogant, penetrating, enigmatic, stupid person. But our social constructs are so weak that it itself surrenders to rejoice. Yes. I seduced others. They are m...

In March?

I still believe in the walk Still believe in the leaves When the night crowded in And the face remained first rain No, need is far inside the song Inspire to overcome the window Some kisses have grown unwatered And some mists turning shadow Quiet sentences once wrote Rains of the windy rainbow Ah, the train passed one night And the platform gathered the dews Questions were born from silver Blaze on the run of time Deep was fragrant in steel water And bright was sunk like a rhyme.
