ইতি সকাল...................................

দুরন্ত আশায় মাঝে মাঝে সকাল হয়........................
এখানে ওখানে খড়, কোয়েলের ধার, মাউন্টেন অফ দ্য মুন-
এভাবেই আচমকা ঝাঁপ দেয়
বুনো পায়রার মতো।।।

বাধা কেবল পারিবারিক চালচিত্রটা;
সে ভীষণ এক বাধা...
শুতে যাই ঘোর রাতে
তারা গুণে,
প্যাঁচার পালক আর রাতের গন্ধ্ মিশে যায়...............
তখনও সকাল আসে।।

আবার তখনও আসে
যখন
টিনের চালে বৃষ্টি
নিমেষে নিমেষে জন্ম্ দেয়
অগুন্তি সোনার পাথরবাটির...
(হায় রে পোড়াকপাল!!!);


তবে আর রহস্য কই?
না আছে।।
বেশিরভাগ সকালই আসে একটা প্রশ্ন নিয়ে...
"জলের কি কোনো রঙ আছে???"
নিশ্চিন্তে উত্তর দেব
এমন কপাল করে এলাম কবে!!!!!!

রাজাভাতখাওয়া ?????

ট্রেনে যেতে যেতে                     স্টেশন দেখেছি
নাম ছিল তার                     রাজাভাতখাওয়া;
ট্রেন ছুটে চলে                       মনে কথা দোলে  
কোন রাজা কবে                    খেয়েছিল ভাত
          কেমন সে ভাত খাওয়া???


...............................................



ট্রেন কবে যাবে                   সে নতুন দেশে
রাজা নেই                       সেই রাত্রির শেষে
প্রজা ভাত খায়                 মুকুট  মাথায়
সে নয়া কাহিনী                লেখে ইতিহাস
        রাজা ভাত খাওয়া শেষ???

Strange Attractors.....

A foul day ends in fair night
A foul night dawns with fair promise
Fair is foul and foul is fair
Just a topsy-turvy juvenile sport.
Embedded in every seed
sleeps the chaotic self-similar virus.
Fractals combine and collapse 
In dazzling never-before images.
All that was known
Remains strangely unknown.
All that seems alien
weaves similar bonds.
Fluttering butterfly wings somewhere
Arouse elsewhere in the passive space
Known and Unknown
Order and Disorder
A Molotov Cocktail
sttrred  and shaken by the
good earth.

Synchronicity...

Outside the movie hall
on the footsteps we sit
You and I watch the 
strange swirls of colour and sound.
(we like so much those things
in which sound and colour weave.)
The city moves in random motion
People,clothes, cigarettes,all on the move
Cars,bikes,couples ,all on the move.
Into the night. Hold on. Don't throw
anything away.

We are so still we could be asleep 
and this could be a
dream of swirling colours, I see
The way you lie in bed
And
Light is harsh.
We sit on the steps and
so many things move. We
sit still out before our eyes
Everything moves,colours streak and swirl,
sounds jumble and fade.....
And it's like looking out at a movie screen.
Overwhelming. unreal.
(But our thoughts move like
the rhythm of jazz ,swoop
and run, descend and
Ascend like trombones and
Turn and twist and hit
Like a piano). This is it....
