Contemporary World Literature Poetry from Bengal
By Suhina Biswasmajumdar
Suhina Biswasmajumdar is a writer from Kolkata, Bengal. A life-long devotee of Swami Vivekananda, Suhina is against any discrimination. Two significant life-forces propel her – ‘love’ and ‘writing’. Suhina’s book ‘Tumi’ (you) and Songs of Silence (A Journey to Love), are collections of her poetic thoughts.
Undefeated mankind
Will you allow me if I want to die
In this pandemic when one tries to save n be safe
Me n my strong desires don’t haunt you in your hellish dreams
Dreams to be…. no need to….to say sorry
No need to apologize or celebrate my victory
We learn to win together we decide to live together
We promise to survive together not suffer – but be secured
To love and to be loved hereafter
As we promise…
Promise to me promise to you promise to our frozen souls broken hearts and scary bodies
Live together love together and even snatch together
The golden sun to bring happiness in this life span
To the hungry weary trodden world of melancholic happy prince
And selfish giants!

Long Live the Poet
A poet can’t die
Like the Phoenix he sings those eternal tunes
The valley of death the rally of corpse
Again get ready to live once more
The evening star dares to peep,
The morning sun’s willing to care
The golden crops share hopes to the hungry world
The wretched distressed traitor or deprived tyrant faces get equal mercy
The poet… the immortal soul of the universe
The ruler of heaven and earth
The creator of devil or divine and dreams
Can never die…
Like Phoenix he smiles and reveals the truth
The saga of victory… the rebellious journey of undefeated mankind…
