To Whom It May Concern

Quaid-Uz-Zaman 1954 (Jamalpur)



And this is a farewell party,
a goodbye dinner;
all have been decorated
and all have been cooked;

millions of balloons
colored and tattooed
fully blown and also  a million needles ready for punching the powered.

-a burst of joy
-a relief
much awaited for.

no space is left
no corner abandoned;

walls, aisles, all
welcome you
with festoons- banners and with the portraits
glittering

flocks of pigeons
flying away from a magical box
to  and fro.

sizzling sounds everywhere
candles burning on both the ends.
welcome for the last bite
-the last supper.
