Pradip Chattopadhyay Poems

my woman I possess you in what way
what way I have owned you up to this day
are you just my need's flesh my hunger's food
are you only a play doll that must suit my mood!
...

The wasp lands on my chest.

I know love comes not a whirlwind
but a quiet whir of the wasp's wings
...

I gave the surround a cautious look
To see if any eyes were on me
One quick swoop then I took
Broke my oath of honesty!
...

He’s the odd bird out I tell my wife
His time is up full spent his life
Bereft of feathers peeps out his skin
He doesn’t deserve anymore caged in.
...

If I could fly back to that strip of life
When showed the church clock three forty five
I held her hand together walked to the green lawn
Baffled how I would ever live without her alone!
...

you know what it takes
you know what's the price
there isn't a love without a heartbreak
without unpleasant surprise!
...

High atop the spire beneath a cloudless sky
the Cross stands forlorn Christmas is nigh
since long in the past time beyond recall
no bells chime here sung no Christmas carol!
...

Gone waste the hour
under the clock tower
faded face forgotten name
promises made never came
...

They deserve admiration immense
who sometimes talk and write nonsense.
...

Do I get the job sir?
Tomorrow we can confirm.
