मेरी नग्म

-

मेरी  नग्म आधी सोइ सी 

मेरी  नग्म आधी  खोई सी...

रूठ  गयी  है आज मुझसे ...

यूँ  जो  मेने  उसे  इतना डांटा...

 

मगर  क्या  करता ..

वो आधी रात को टहलने  निकलती  है 

जहाँ  जाने  से  मना  किया  है ..

जिंदगी  ने ..

वो  उसी  कमरे  को  खोल  देती  है ..

वहां  पड़े  टूटे  खिलौनो पर  से 

धुल  हटा  कर  देर तक खेलती है ....

हर  रोज  सजाने की कोशिस  की  है उसे... .

हर  बार  एक नया  रंग दे कर ....

और रोज  वो कपडे गंदे  कर अति है..

 

टुकड़ा टुकड़ा कर बिखरा है मेरे 

पुराने  गीतों  का  एक शीशा ...

अजीब  है.. . मेरी नग्म उसी मे जा सजती है... .

THE MESSAGE I TYPED AND NEVER SENT

-

Art by: Subash Chandra Maharana He had left the windows open that night. It wasn’t normal as the calendar read “12 December” in bold red, studded on a picture of a snow bed in some far off place he already had a Saudade for. Supine was he on his ages-old bed that squeaks every time he tries to find some comfort. Motionlessly, there he was lying, almost like a carcass but having a pulse still strolling in some vein of his body. The body named Akshit and that feeble pulse, named, Ziva. Turning around he spotted some stars through the gap his window provided him, a gap that allowed him to keep a track of a syzygy, hoping that would justify his love. Just then, that happened, suddenly, abruptly, and in a trice! Yeah, that epoch slid down the path from maybe a star he stalked each night and hugged him. A past, a name, a soul. In those dark memory lanes that his brain had, a street graced incandescence. That pulse got a bit stronger and with a throb reached his heart. He could no more find t...

THE "BURNING" BOOK

T he book slept... The smell rose... He abruptly shut the chattering pages down. All silence, all calm. His fingerprints registered themselves on the rim of his window while he allowed the entry of an arcane. Someone, too far from the knowledge of existence had been trying hard to reach him.    Pivoting his body on the stiff arms anchored to the cold Steel of the railing, he successfully attempted to get the weight off his feet. He raised his eyes amidst the immediate darkness to find some distant lights. Lights that twinkled on some floor of that city building were at least a few kilometers away. That mere twinkle, with a sign of someone knowingly breathing through the night, made him look over there, alluring him to search for some life. The rays of someone's sleepless bulbs managed to pull up glitter in his dry eyes, which were now harvesting moisture from the air!   It took a few hours and many minutes for the number of distant lights to go off one by one. Working the...

THE HAPPY BIRTHDAY

BY- BIBASWAN MAHARANA In this world full of sane people there was a street, well known for an insane one. That road took me to my destination every day. For a psychologist of 27, unmarried there was never any reason to reach home early. I was new to that city. And yes, even psychologists do feel lonely. But much to my delight I had got a case to study. A case which was never enrolled in any hospital. A case that roamed around in the city just like hundred others. Everyday while coming back from the hospital I would pack my food from a biriyani stall. Again, it’s just a lie that bachelors cook. On my way I would see him strolling here and there with his mental disorder just like a child does with his/her favorite doll. Then one day I decided to pack two food packets, one for me and the other one for him. My bike slowed down and seeing me get off it, he came to me. Didn’t ask for anything just looked at me, actually staring is the word for it. “What’s your name?” I asked. “umm... B...
