Naveed Akram Poems

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.
...

You forgive and moan if that could be,
It cannot moan that far, look;
And see now, why it glints in the eye
When I saw you speak and forgive.
...

This section deals with politics,
And this one economics.
I am a book of longevity,
Inexact and imprecise,
...

Only heaven, only mist, my sacred fortune
Is ceasing to be, opening now into good fellowship.
I have meanings, too many friends,
I bless each when they arrive;
...

I find an appellation so ruinous
That ruin dictates my ruin.
My appetite for words or names
Is confident and appealing
...

I break this brack, a bread of fruit,
A bread too good for the eating.
My wives still make me some sawn ring,
A bagel, or a bangle, or sweet pie so much.
...
