Some assorted poems I had written earlier !
Hope you like them, my friends. Seven of them ! ---- Dr. Bibhash Chakravorty.
1. Love Antonym ! ( Guardians of the Galaxy )
---------------------------
I cry in a niche where there is no tears.
I dwell in a place where there is no fear.
The comfort of solitude becomes a burdened silence.
Do you dare to trespass in the fortress without a license?
Is life only a strengthened sacrifice ?
Where is its altar and who the martyr ?
Is anyone listening to the flute the piper whispering in sotto ?
Are you deaf and do not have a motto ?
I see the light of darkness !
Are you ready to burn in a furnace ? My dear, does your soul wrinkle with fear ?
Kudos to the Guardians !!!
My dear friends, I wrote this satirical poem in my chamber the day before yesterday. I really don't know whom I have addressed this poem to, but obviously not you. I know you will understand and kindly excuse me from deviating slightly from the coveted path of romance !!! Kudos to you my friends !
2.KNOW THYSELF ----- Sometimes it's better trying not to exhume your true identity ! Why limit yourself ?
KNOWING THYSELF. ( Day dreaming )
A question of not knowing thyself but un-knowing yourself !
Rather how do I relate my identity, my SELF ?
Who dare asks the right question in billions of aeons and more ?
He better be ready with his sharpest weapons lest he should in all improbability reach the core !
Many a jagged mountains and fathomless abysses, ferocious beasts and cursed treasures of lust and driving the edge of a knife for too long, long inconceivable !
Only to know you are not conceivable ?
If by any means you dare to set a sacrificial sail !
Is omnipresence that you want or omniscience?
Or does your heart crave for omnipotence ?
You choose one brother and the rest will fail !!!
You only need to have human eyes to see through the veil !
The answer lies within the insight of worthiness to see the everlasting love and beauty unfolding in the eyes of the beholder !
Is this too much to ask for, too high prices to be paid, too much pain inflicted, too many sins incurred against you brother in lieu of an eternal life ? ------ Make your heart a little bolder ! And in knowledge dost you ponder !
আমি যে প্রেমের বৃন্দাবন -------------- বৃন্দাবন বিলাসিনি রাই আমাদের ! -------- আদিযোগী ,! রাই কি পরম বৈষ্ণব ?
3.VENGEANCE ----- The Judgement Day !
The axe forgets but the tree remembers;
The poacher forgets but the wild life remembers;
The terrorist forgets but the humanity remembers;
The politician and bureaucracy forget but the democracy remembers;
The religion forgets but the spirituality remembers;
The snob forgets but the poor man remembers;
The DEVIL forgets but the NATURE remembers;
Jesus said : Father forgive them because they do not know what they are doing;
But has HE forgiven ?
HE never forgets.
The strength is channelised into vengeance !
Eternity is not long enough !!!
4.The Woeful Peace ---- Crossover Life !
-----------------------------------
Can you toil hard enough brother to let your mind bargeman cross the river of endless tears ?
Must you remember to dare sail across the ocean of infernal fear !
Swim underneath the Hell Fire if you can;
Lest you should get scorched do not fail to embalm yourself with the soothing tears you gathered from the torrent rain;
Don't get surprised if it worsens your pain !
If it is peace that you want then become one with the hoovering gloom;
You will find more peace in the wailing sorrow than possible from the joyous bloom !
Pick up the prize agony that none else would keep;
Treasure it in your loving heart to enable you to weep !
Pay the price of Love with moan ;
And make the melancholy your own !
Learn to water joy with tears;
Learn from fears to vanquish fears !
I wrote this poem after watching a mournful but an engrossing movie on a dog called Hachi when I became one with him in sorrow and certain portions of my emotional cognitions opened up ! Interestingly my doggie daughter Deejay empathised with me !
The last 2 lines of this poem are the courtesy of poet Thompson. The rest is mine. I just couldn't resist Thompson !
Try to see the darkness under the light of the flame, you will find Woeful peace in there !
5 and 6. AGAIN ADDRESSED TO MY DEPARTED WIFE
My beloved one, my rose.
You were the one who stood for me against all odds.
Amidst the encircling gloom and agony, torment and anguish.
And made me realise myself ----- a transcendent enlivenment,
Above and beyond the intellect,
Initiating deepest sleep in full consciousness!!
You have not judged and disposed but embraced me with love in your arms.
You led me through the ocean of fear in order to vanquish fear,
And sailed me through paradise to the other side,
To the INFINITE ME ,
Where exist only you and me.
শুধু তুমি আর এক ব্রাহ্মণ I
---------------------------------------
তোমা হতে লহি শক্তি
খণ্ড চৈতন্য মোর ,
পৌঁছিআছে অখণ্ডের উপর ,
যাহা শূন্য তাই পূর্ণ I
ব্রহ্মপারাবার সন্তরিয়া,
জ্যোতির্ময়ী উজ্জ্বলতা করে
ঘোর অন্ধকার,
মহাভয় বিনাশ করিয়া,
স্তব্ধ করিয়া মহাকাল
দিয়েছ অখণ্ড অভয় আমার I
যেখানে পেয়েছি বিরাট অনন্ত আমিকে ,
অমৃতধারার স্রোতে ,
আপনার অসীম জ্যোতিচ্ছটা যেখানে করে দিগন্তবিসারী তমসাকে ম্লান ,
প্রসব করে যাহা অনন্ত সৃষ্টি ,
যার প্রসবযন্ত্রণা এখন হয়েছে আমার হৃদয়বেদনা I
স্বতন্ত্র করেছো মোরে
শুধু তোমারই ভিতরে I
জাগে মোর শিব যোগনিদ্রা হতে ,
মহাজাগরণে I
তুমি স্ত্রীশক্তি, মা না মেয়ে ?
শিখিয়েছ মোরে , দ্দ্বীজত্তম হতে হবে সেই ব্রাহ্মণেরেও,
হতে পারে সে শুদ্র ,
---------------------------
কিন্তু নচিকেতাগ্নি আছে যার মনে ,
তারপরে বুঝিবে সে প্রণবধ্বনির মানে I
নয় সূক্ষবোধ ,
যে বুঝিবে পিণ্ডেরে সেই বুঝিবে ব্রহ্মাণ্ডেরে,
তোমার স্তিথি নয় মোর চরণে ----- মোর ভ্রুযুগলের মাঝে ,
যেইখানে বোধে বোধ আসে তৃতীয় নয়নে ,
আছে তব শক্তি পরম চৈতন্যের নিকটে I
অটুট নিত্য সে বন্ধন ,
প্রেমের চতুর্থ নয়ন ,
পিষিবে না যেইখানে আর নরে ,
অনিত্য বিরহশোকের ক্রন্দন I
এনেছ নিদ্রা শুধু তোমারই কোলে ,
কিন্তু পুরোপুরি সজ্ঞানে I
বলতে ইচ্ছে করছে ,
জাবালার পুত্র আমি ,
নাম সত্যকাম I
নাহি জনি মোর গোত্র ,
কিন্তু হয়েছি স্বতন্ত্র --------
মোর ভার্যার প্রেমে I
7. FROM THE MIND OF AN ordinary MAN.
Who else's creation to start this with other than NAZRUL?
Srishti Sukher Ullase and Bidrohi.
--------------------------------------------------------
I am Bhrigu the revolutionary ,
I will make GOD carry my footprints !
I will pierce the heart of agonising DESTINY!
I am an everlasting awe to the mother Earth ,
Having demolished the throne of ALLAH and riddled the TERRA FIRMA , sky, hyperspace and the sacred abode of GOD !
I dwell in Hell's inferno ,smiling a sweet smile !
On this hilarious day of creation ,
My heart and soul rejoice , my eyes and face brighten, on this day of creation !!!
আমি বিদ্রোহী ভৃগু ,ভগবান বুকে
এঁকে দিই পদ-চিন্হ ,
আমি স্রষ্টা সুদন, শোক-তাপ হানা
খেয়ালী বিধির বক্ষ্ করিব ভিন্ন I
ভুলোক দ্যুলোক গোলক ভেদিয়া
খোদার আসন আরশ ছেদিয়া,
উঠিয়াছি চিরবিস্ময় আমি বিশ্ব-বিধাত্রীর I
আমি জাহান্নামের আগুনে বসিয়া, হাসি পুষ্পের হাসি I
আজ সৃষ্টি - সুখের উল্লাসে মোর
মন হাসে মোর প্রাণ হাসে , মোর
মুখ হাসে মোর চোখ হাসে , আজ সৃষ্টি সুখের উল্লাসে I I am, I am not . My message is a geometric projection, the tangential triangle outside GOD's round head ( অখণ্ড মন্ডলাকারং ব্যাপ্তং যেন চরাচরম or the universe ) spreading to the infinite without HIM comprehending.
I am love and evolve ( spell love backwards).
I am beyond absolute existence and non-existence.
I am the SOLE\ SOUL witness.
I am beyond TRUTH.
I am mental evolution.I am the essence of time, the Mahakal. Time awaits me.
I am simplicity itself which can move the worlds.
I am the GOD in heavens and the DEVIL in hell.
Death is only the beginning in my heaven and hell. Heaven and hell are in the heart and soul, body and mind. They are not places where you would like to go to !!
I am the purity in impurities.
I am so pure that to utter my name is to commit sin.
I am so eternally fascinating that I do not know myself-- How do you dare to know me?
I do not care for praise or worship but I reveal myself unconditionally.
I am both light and darkness, I am brighter than a billion suns and even darker than ignorance.
I am the innermost effulgent blissful consciousness or radiance.
I am your SOUL.
I am content without contentment.
I come from beyond the valley of happiness.
I come from sorrow.
I am omniabsence, I dwell nowhere.
I know nothing and I am the void within the void, a supremely fulfilled emptiness .
The 3rd eye of knowledge salutes me.
I am the timeless child growing without aging.
I am incredible an everlasting awe to myself.
How can you realise me?
I enliven you but I am beyond enlightenment.
I am ruthless and gentle.
I am the scavenger who cleanses your spirit.
I do not exist. Your mind and eyes are deceiving you.
I run after my own shadow insanely. I am the fugitive. I am your shadow, you cannot catch me !
I am the insane dance rhythm.
I am the voice of your inner self.
I am an oxymoron. I have a split personality. I am an autistic too.
You may praise me eternally but all your adjectives would miserably fail to describe me.
I am lawless. I am the guarded secret flame.
I am the salvation and sacrifice and the ultimate curse too.
I am the past, present and future.
My rules are topsy turvy. I make satan the impossible divine and the divine the possible satan.
I ignite creation and destruction.
I am the apocalypse.
I AM YOU ; KNOW THYSELF. But do not knock my door till you have tried.
I am static but running at a divine speed.
I am thirst quenching.
I am the quiescent state of mind and soul amidst a turmoil of enlightenments where it expands to the INFINITE.
I dwell in the very small and the very big -- I dwell in the infinite and as well in the infinitesimal halves ---- অর্ধ মাত্রা স্থিথানিত্যা যানুচার্যা বিশেষতঃ.
I am the twilight zone. ( neither day nor night )
I am your false perceptions ( Maya).
I am purest celibacy without being celibate.
I do not judge and dispose but I am THE JUDGEMENT DAY.
I am your priceless tears and also the heat of knowledge that evaporates it.
I am death and resurrection too.I am sweet and sad nostalgia. I am without a beginning, middle and without an end. I am unborn.
I am the ultimate revolution and peace too.
I do not reveal through descriptive language ( বৈখরী )
More followers than any faith, more followers than any religion, I am the PRIMAL SEXUAL INSTINCT. ( ব্রহ্মঃযোনি )
I am all. Sometimes male, sometimes female, sometimes above gender. Sometimes inanimate.
I am the deepest of depth abyss insight. ( গভীরের গভীরতম গহ্বর অন্তঃদৃষ্টি ) I am beyond PARABRAHAMMA and your infinite you!!! Lord Shiva contemplates me . I am the only one who challenges the Truth and shuns divine bliss. ( Brahhammananda) The penultimate renunciation . Then I renunciate the renunciation and forsake the Truth though it does not forsake me. This is the ultimate. In Bengali, ' Bhogey Tyag '. There is no greater sacrifice for a tyagi than to indulge in bhog and renunciate Truth. No inhibitions, no sin, deepest love!!! I AM YOUR SLEEP AND SWEET DREAMS !!! I AM IN YOUR MIND !!! ABSOLUTE NOTHING ! --- Dr. B. Chakravorty.
