The degree of craziness
I will not go to the grave because
When I go to the grave my...

Sui GenerisThe sun opens her eyes behind a roseate veil,
her aubade harmonizing with Argus-eyed blackbirds
as it rises to a crescendo, staring in her husband’s
cratered eyes, ready to relieve him of his watch over the
world’s children so he can attend to their parents —
that is, the cosmic bodies that collided to create them; the
sacred alchemy.
He lifts her...

Discovering LightDiscovering Light
Cry Ugly shame lost its power
Shame was regret…
Buying into malicious judgment I wasn't good enough…
He knew I was more than good enough… I gave all I was capable of…
He loved me because I gave 100%… even when my 100% fell short
He channeled his disappointment and hope through his poetry.
Discovery emerged...

Alphabet Soup StigmaAlphabet Soup Stigma
A multitude of letters bob and undulate as I stir the soup.
I gaze confused when I notice the letters haphazardly merge together…Magnetized letters repel and pull together.
Slowly familiar acronyms form. PTSD, GAD, BPAD, MDD, and more.
I recognized DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) acronyms.
My feelings are mixed....

WhenWhen I was younger
answers, solutions were
a driving force – How I
would toss and turn, like
a salad mix with dressing,
trying to identify and constitute
the many pieces of entree
unknown --
Of course, with age most appetites
are forced to change; for the better,
I am far less a seeker of answers
and more one of interesting questions --
having found...

Emergence And LayersEmergence And Layers
Everyone has layers
Unknown layers… are mysteries of your soul
Peeling back layers brings you closer to your core and soul
Revealing your core shines light on your soul
Your core and soul emerges for others to see and feel
You are known…

PARODYING BERTOLT BRECHT
There are loves that happen one day,
And they are good ...
others who live a year
And they are better ...
There are others who survive many years
And they are very good ...
But there are others who perpetuate themselves
For all lives ...
These are the eternal,
The indispensable ...
This is...

A Mother's Worries-A Mother's Love
Last time I saw her, you could feel the autumn breeze
Digging through all these memories of a picture and a thousand words
Remembering all the summers past, with a laugh on this day
Although a mother's worries may seem to go unnoticed
You gave us all someone to look up to all these years
With the silent love two...

The Pinnacle in the SkyI feel like a child in an adult skin,
Living with dreams from the beginning
One era has come abd gone leaving
Hope stranded on the lawn, yet I have
Not had a taste of life despite the
Painful sacrifice and when the wind blows
I look for somewhere else to go but the
Avenue in front of me is gothic...

A prose poem based on Copotronic love ScifieA prose poem based on Copotronic love (Scifie)
by Tamanna Ferdous
One day, I was all prepared to test him about his IQ.
After testing him with different questions in general knowledge,
I read him from an antique Bengali poet, Jibanananda Das.
"The resting place placed the restful here
Never certain if the restful is resting here, though.”
Then...

To Be Known is To Be LovedThe wind knows the rider before the horse does. Long before sunup, boots scuff barnwood and the rawhide creaks with memory. A buckaroo doesn’t announce himself… he just is. A silhouette stitched into the mesa’s edge, hat pulled low not in mystery, but in reverence. Out here, to be known is not to be seen,...

Third party annotated bibliography by Tamanna Ferdous
Rene was composing a bangla song. After decades and motivations distant from a light year, he truly tried. Just with one concept. Photosynthesis is not something photogenic. Certainly not an easy subject, not quite popular that fame is blessed about.
"I think you need a break. Simply try an easier path."
Shanta wanted to cheer him up.
"Let...

At GethsemaneThis is a Repost
Today is Good Friday. Jesus, the Nazarene, who robbed no one, cheated no one, who loved all, healed the sick and performed only acts of kindness, when accused guilty and became the victim of gross savagery, didn’t utter a word in self defense, but surrendered to His Father’s will and shed even...

Elysium in the LightAs i bask in her glory, her sunlight reigns,
Her smile i cherish, her love still remains.
A spark ignites every room with your grace,
A symphony played in the softest embrace.
Your brilliance, a beacon, illuminating bright,
Whispers of wisdom taking flight in the night,
Behind those deep eyes, a universe...
