Kobibhab
Kobi Thakur is teller of truth, not seeker of links.
He forges ahead, not caring who swims or sinks.
He is poet. He is not swimming coach.
Whoever annoys him he will stomp like roach--
Like an old roach with uneven legs,
Chuck it in bin like washed-out dregs;
Or leave it drowning in its own juices;
Or torment it while the grinder sluices.

Like an old roach with uneven legs,
Chuck it in bin like washed-out dregs;
Or leave it drowning in its own juices;
Or torment it while the grinder sluices.

Kuhok
kokilo mone,
kuhe pichhone;
dhorite gelam--
hagilo dhone.

dhorite gelam--
hagilo dhone.
Voyeurism
aashun dada, boshun dada,
chhnirchhi mora bal--
raja babu-r chhoto meye ke
lagay kanai lal.
