Naveed Akram Poems

My posture needs to be improved,
Since the horizon inhabited me as my fortunate self,
Sending me to distant far oceans that lingered
And fingered the irritation, offering my sympathy.
...

My sounds from prisoners hide the redundant men
Of the west and east, their alertness commands me
To pose the question so like the rebellion.
...

To the light we say our pleasant news of the evening
Then dawn appears to the seeing eye like the twitching ear
Resetting the clock, resettling the time,
Forward march!
...

Never will minds display their rectitude
Until the swerving thoughts be riddles and spots
To join into sins of the higher arts.
The beauty of the mind concerns me,
...

Carrying off his shoes is like days and roads
Being the unities of a people who move and learn.
This that diverges carries a proof of existence,
That which converges means a beauty.
...

The box disappears from the twilight,
Then the sun appears to justify the success;
One boxes the bags for delivery,
As one opens the bars that stain the city.
...

Some days elapsed after moonlight nights,
No fanatic or untimely saint became lights,
For the conspicuous fancies ran risk,
And again, the days became rather brisk.
...

I make adjustments offering the nations a reward
This time we meet, this time is complete,
Like the licking of doughnuts from the jam we eat.
I make a spoken term respected by the nations,
...

If you are hungry hide your face,
Until the hurt of the pain attunes
To the antiseptic from praising,
And then coin the phrase
...

The ape is a parrot of the hairy variety,
Including health and buttons and laces
For the shoes that spring to mind, overall.
Yes, the bridge of its mind is solid,
...
