Homecoming

Quaid-Uz-Zaman 1954 (Jamalpur)



Life reeled me  off  and
i drifted far away to the height  of a sky
now i reel in myself
when the sun in crimson setting speedily and the shadow close to the chin
dancing in a mystic way.
I reel  hastily in a ceaseless effort.
My hands warmth with love and must bid goodbye.

Memories here and there
live or dead
thoughts seived or paranoid and the
whisperings new and old ones  rattle all through
the  conscience
and closing the diary
essentially a different job.
