Naveed Akram Poems

Our party passed off very well,
The matter-of-fact speech was ceaseless;
Being attentive to fingers robbed us,
Silent and special and elegant as ever
...

Great-nephews married to the larger librarian,
His volumes mattered to him, his children were him;
These kids had missing demises, responsibility occurred,
Inclined to be highly medical and full of flair.
...

And with them did we journey some hours,
To be decaying hours and days,
Winds thwarting winds with corridors and rain.
The stationary blasts of life became overwhelming
...

I may learn to express, to explain and state,
But learning is superior when late.
The love of knowledge is greater than love
And all its intricacies, all of the above.
...

I play some card to hand over
So that the game finishes always.
The cards are fully proper
And nobody lies too much.
...

They spoke to aliens on the bridge,
Who were the faces? What could we envisage?
The aliens subjected us to torture,
When we met them, who was the abductor?
...

Your dance has a fight in the air,
Inside we wear our shoes with a flair;
The costume of colours contained in our minds
Is special as a trophy and it grinds.
...

God is of a time with god,
My real reason for coming is for you.
God has deadly apparatus,
Where do reasons lie for the taking?
...
