Bijay Kant Dubey Poems

Born at a village in Deoghar
Just by the banks of the river Ajay,
But reared and grew up at Dumka,
A boy played I into the bushes,
...

While passing through the raw red-soiled link ways,
I used to come across the scavenger women,
The women folk with the tin boxes
Full of human excreta
...

The Masanjore Dam
Built over a rivulet flowing
In between the hills
And their clusters.
...

On her way to Gidni hamlet,
Going the tract
All alone,
Passing through the orchard plot,
...

It burnt everything
And it remained not anything
To be called of my mother,
Nothing, nothing, nothing,
...

Into the blazing earth of the hot months,
Chaitra and Baisakh,
When heat soars up,
It burns
...

A foreigner girl with the hands folded in
To say,
Namaste India
Just with the hands
...

There are many who live below the poverty line,
There are many who go half-fed and half-clothed,
Many still keep sleeping on the floor
As their housings not spacious enough
...
