Naveed Akram Poems

A formula has been contrived for our benefit,
Once more the divisions can keep,
Reasons are for living, ones to admit.
...

People need a break in the day,
Little is on the horizon, of this day.
Open affairs clasp and mismanage
For the days are not nights.
...

It is appetizing, the meal is appetizing,
I consumed a mighty warrior of steel.
My concession was plain, just give me food
So I give you a meal, food for two now.
...

The end to danger is near,
I just am indignant about the bandolier.
I have my bayonet, to stab and kill,
Vietnam was a time of the bill.
...

Repelling and rebelling, smelling like a toad,
This soldier has a message so like a road.
Enclose him in words, as a dead man lurks
In the bushes, in the trees where he works.
...

This colloquial word has been tremendous,
The full word is a concise term, a love.
For the sight of trouble needs these words,
And they collide and collapse for better terms.
...

Fierce are storms when they first appear,
Killing the school, killing the family,
When strikes are managed in the atmosphere.
...
