Naveed Akram Poems

With a face unopened, a joke appeared,
Taking chances, gathering them, like occupations,
And then laughter came as money,
A shrill whistle shook the head.
...

A son has destroyed me for being father,
Offering standing satan a reply for courage;
His eyes keep me in the redness of chairs,
I sit in them for fear of darkness descending.
...

The sky is nearer to the sun,
And the stars shine so brightly to time,
Then the times roll into each other
Like the hands of a clock,
...

O God
My happiness clouds the mind,
A shaken shell surrounds me
But this time the friendliness is extreme
...

The voice is blooming,
Suggestive of fleeting thoughts;
Yet beauty is the order
Of strong behaviour.
...

Flowers have souls, flowers disintegrate,
Their gloomy surroundings are brightened.
In the fields of our discontent a cold iceberg
Erupts to uplift our souls that carry the flowers.
...

The circuit of artificial men stammer and stain
The clothes with juices of engrossed men,
A caviar is sent, a turret is in the midst of us.
One finds a carbon dioxide molecule inside us,
...

The beach and butterfly flew along the sky,
Feeding loneliness into the light that took
A slight edge with the act of existence,
Little do people know the height of nature and its contents.
...

There are small portions of this shadowy dark world
Where males rise from the breasts of dark and desolate hills,
Their soldiery is difficult to dig by their dreary nameless state
For a cloud of incense surrounds those who tread on with journey.
...

Over hatred a hurt is spoken,
Those demons lurk anointed,
With cherished horns of antelopes,
Washing iron with irate arts.
...
