Pus or cancer—I vote neither by Partha Sarkar I am in the sun. The green bird at the window—The beautiful
fragrance from the east. (rippling the grasshopper’s
alphabet.) I am in the sun. The white clouds over
my face— Glorious jasmine brings Unknown imagination from birth. I learn my first lesson. I am in the sun. The birds are flying to and fro—Innocent Pegasus
Goes beyond human liberation. I follow it as far as I can. . . . And then a knock on
the door. Does one call me? I peep outside. No, it is no one. It is something. It is
the election. Will
I tell it to go back Or kick
it on its back? Partha
Sarkar, a resident of Ichapur, a small town of a province West Bengal of India,
is a graduate who writes poems inspired by his brother, the late Sankar Sarkar,
and his friends (especially Deb kumar Khan) to protest against social injustice
and crimes against nature. His poems have been in different magazines both in
Bangla and in English. He once believed in revolution but now he is confused because
of the obscurity of human beings, though he keeps the fire in his soul despite this.
