Big fish, small fish and small talker.

Big fish, small fish and small talker.


Dhrubo’s father was murdered
by the “enemies” after the liberation war. He has hot blood
like most of us. But his hands have “purpose” as he says,
he wants to “become” and “do good things” to our
“Bengal of Gold”. Some gold, really it’s politicsfucked.

And the minds of people are filthy. I am may sound overjudgemental.
I love my country and the intellectual lot, but really
the majority disgusts me.
I guess we need people like Dhrubo.
I am glad he says he fancies to “go back” as soon as he is “ready”.
Brooklyn was my escape.
I can’t go back not unless I am absolutely certain
that I won’t be chained or bounded by the ruthless
eyeless
rootless
mentalities.


The hungryguy’s name is Kai.
We talked about Korea. Football (soccer).
Tagore. Nazrul. Lalon. Jazz(I was educated rather, I don’t know Jazz, I still don’t).
America.


Wars. Of all kinds. Internal ones interested Kai.
His mother left him when he was one month old
with aunt and her son.
They love him like their own; he isn’t absolutely unattractive.


He assured me that anyone could sing
so I tried today. I got glares from people
around us. We had a laugh about it though.
then we had tea.


I should sleep
I must.



Dear Brooklyn,
I want to wake up early tomorrow.
Can't miss the bus
the tea
Kai’s manuscript which he promised to bring
and our tea.
Thank you,
Small Talker.

    This feels so intentionally connected and disjointed; like all these things happened to you recently. Like little moments you really want to remember that all feel the same in the sense that they don't say, change gravity but they affected you.

    "he isn’t absolutely unattractive."
    I absolutely love that; it's so much better than saying "I have no fucking oxygen when I see his fucking sexy face". ... like when I call good-looking people 'non-ugly'; it kind of reminds me of that. I think that is a really fun and casual, offhand observation.

    And the font...
    well, it totally fits the poem.

    this is neat.... you should make a contest with that title.
    i like the last stanza best, and this line: "i won't be chained or bounded by the ruthless eyeless rootless mentalities"

    There is a randomness about this piece that I like. How you talked about politics and eased into the home life was great.

    'that I won’t be chained or bounded by the ruthless
    eyeless
    rootless
    mentalities.'

    That was my favorite part.

    It's nice to take little walks in your minds because they find so many things others miss. C
