Naveed Akram Poems

Looking at a person is like water running,
You please the senses by feeling peace,
And when ice becomes itself you swear
That men and women have dissolved into liquid.
...

My alarm hastens with a cake,
Knuckled by tables, the mint is fine,
Mint echoes, differing with the dessert.
...

Howling is an act of religion,
Beneath it is the urge to cry and be in a fog,
When flowers burst with fruit
And actions desire each other
...

One is life’s one, one of the celebrations,
Until the treachery has been committed;
Let informed opinion be made to untie
And then cutting happens due to oldness.
...

Dropping, sinking, submerging,
The boat is grotesquely important
At trade with death, the capsized.
Groping to the centre, a beetle solves
...

A lizard loads suffering on the nation of the sea,
It is to perform on the house by its rules, not what we saw;
Its lack of power reduces the weakness in our hearts,
Green and slimy, full of creams and disorders.
...

Special ice glints, dazzling wonder;
One has been a disciple for years,
The mountains are fellows of blood
And ice.
...

Gastric liquids are only gel,
The castles of foam and trouble;
With the fuel of philandering
Cast your shadows on the mirror.
...

Hardship suffered from the sun and stars,
Rays of light fall onto the mountains of highness;
A man is against all the ways of men,
One man stood at a pinnacle one denies.
...

Up on the mountain a confusion breeds,
Poising on the summit is coherence;
A rotund man confronts conjurors
Who confine him with a penance.
...
