Naveed Akram Poems

This island is fluttering its eyes,
With shock the tail of the land is on,
Fire has been, fire has seen,
Like boulders of the ire and pride,
...

It was a sign of the senses,
It was dry, dastardly and sour,
The moistened lips retracted and spat,
For we are on unions with thoughts,
...

The hills bespeak fortune after war,
Forces of formations align to cast the enemy
Adrift in decisions of final onslaught.
They react to the walls that shape the acts,
...

Black and attracted to the vacuum,
A space is an endeavour of the word,
It is language, it is spoken by tongues,
For it spreads with sense and surprise,
...

I weigh a ton, I am at rest,
Why does the star above be strange?
For it shines on my head,
Even at night with dark lusts.
...

Best of the worlds,
Be a place for the delicate ending,
Make an effort to water the eyes,
Those eyes stay on earth,
...

My duty is for the dukes to falter,
My acts are numerous to follow,
And the skills of a generation are ripe.
My duties are instilled in the hearts,
...

I can light my cigar with frozen fingers,
Steel is bigger disgrace after waste;
But the buttons of this night and day
Are pressed by loving features of life.
...

I have a peace for the nights ahead,
The stars are dismayed by the routes
Of many planets always in the game of life.
Deathly planets form their different sizes,
...

If the the light entrances me,
Let it enter the folds of the earth
In this ground of some heaven.
The light has grown dim and dimmer,
...
