Parting Poem by BASAB CHAUDHURI

Parting

A body forced into the furnace,
A star lost from the firmament,
A number deleted from the android, -
all the same.

Willingness does not matter -
Out of sight,
But not out of mind, -
persistent pain.

I would have taken a different road......
had I known,
but it is too late now.

The last day's parting
floats like hyacinth
on a turbulent stream.
