Identity
Quaid-Uz-Zaman 1954 (Jamalpur)
Everywhere I discover
myself
or
nowhere.
I carry no address
permanent
or
temporary, though
I am not in exile .
Paradise
dwelling in the heart,
Hell
flaming with all the agonies of fire.
Everyone loves
the story of love and tears;
in a figure less space
I
fill up the blanks
with
dreams colorful.
(Quaid-Uz-Zaman, Station Road, Jamalpur)
