I am Sajal Ahmed. I live in a remote village in Bangladesh. Since I did not earn a degree from a major institution, I have grammatical issues. My birthday is June 22. Even though I worked in a newspaper, I have never published on a page because I never revealed my name. I wanted to see whether my poems are really poems or whether the Bengali literary society would accept them. In this regard, I am disappointed, because even anonymously, my own institutions did not accept my poems. |

Today has made me alone...
Even from the womb I had heard,
only if the father is wealthy does the unborn...
Scientific or philosophic; whatever mad you think...
I will not say I have come to make any human...
You seem to love someone silently;
Trying to understand yet I didn’t, stopping...
|
If I lay down my life today for my people, after death they will split: some will call me God’s messenger, some curse me, some stay silent. True devaluation comes from those who knew all yet chose silence. |
