POETRY / The companion

It said, 'You've brought a return ticket with you friend / Remember, people are not meant to be held onto.'

Poetry / Three Songs: Kazi Nazrul Islam

The mind craves to fly far away. / In the guise of a beggar, eyes wet with tears

KHERO KHATA / The moon is a cheeseball and we are effervescent

The moon is a cheeseball,  Cratered, yellow, and huge like your eyeballs 

KHERO KHATA / déjà vu

Moving mindlessly and / Etching every alley along the way / With verses devoted to you

POETRY / Escape

You thought you had escaped, didn't you? / Outran everything that weighed you down

POETRY / Mould

A quiet, seniority in its touch, / A tenderness that feels like it's meant to last

POETRY / Delila’s quest (20 October 2014)

Li’l Del is walking all alone Li’l Del wants to find her way home.

POETRY / Memory speaks

Sometimes at early dawn / You overpower my eyelids / And won’t let me wake up

KHERO KHATA / Making headlines

We'll put up feigned politicians / And their fake promises instead
