Naveed Akram Poems

Scurrying footsteps resound in the hallway,
Opening torment to flowers of the tree,
That are suddenly angered by the topics
Aroused by the noises of the hallway.
...

I hear the sounds of the watery stream,
Far and below the masters of fish are abiding,
Their stare is a straw like the drinking of the shore,
I hear the very sounds that reside in the watery bay.
...

The sorcerer spins around,
There will be times when sounds
Spin into ashes and fire is transferred,
Like the licking flames always in view.
...

I ring for coffee, cigarette, and gin, and take
My chair so faded, to the designs we must start;
Re-reading the letters in front,
I rate the fluency and style,
...

Not yet will those ancient hearts be melting again
When the only days hearts have melted are these;
Then swearing happens under the course of blues,
Greens and reds, the primary hues of this planet,
...

Even when there is poison in the whole fish,
A fish can be worthier of sin than the whole world,
Though this world accompanies the eliminations,
The worst of health, and the best of weathers.
...

On a smooth slope we sleep,
Throats are in anguish,
As the dreaming is in concussion.
Some sleep in a bedroom of higher
...

Where are you in this highly acclaimed world?
Inside which country do you hurry?
A middle is in the country,
An action is committed further than the rest.
...

Trying to be a dilemma creaks and moans,
Acting towards the goals of a calm night;
The hurt of painters is like the filling of wonders
In circles of destruction.
...

One studies the blind and their weakness,
Offering them kindness is sweet indeed;
For their eyes cannot behold the pleasures
Of a day and night, for their darkness
...
