সুজন

সুজন

 অচেনা ভিড়ে খুঁজি তোমায়...
তোমার সেই ম্লান মুখ
 চেনা মুখ ,
এখন অবশ্য হালকা আবছা
অন্ধকারে ঘনিয়ে যাওয়া।

সেই তোমার হাসি?
মন জুড়িয়ে যেত....
চলনা সুজন, এই ব্যস্ত শহর এর কোলাহল থেকে 
দূর খানিকটা ?
কোনো এক দিগন্তে ,
ভাষাহীন শামীয়ানা...
তোমার বিরল মুখ 
নেই তার কোনো বিকল্প...

চলো যাই, কোনো এক সমান্তরালে
 হারিয়ে যাই,
এই চেনা মুখের শহরের , এই আনাচে কানাচে
এর থেকে অনেক দূরে অথবা খানিকটা দুর.....

Sense of Belongingness

    Sense of Belongingness within ourselves is quite natural in this elixir of life; as we tend to cling on to our chosen one's.  That ray of hope drives us to move ahead in life. The very fact that we all are ultimately 'self 'as we come alone and depart alone makes us harder to think as we are living in this temporal illusory world that projects our very situational phases .  It's like a humane maze...Interdependence within dependence .  Paradoxically speaking, we tend to be independent whereas in actuality we can never be fully independent in this world as God's creation was humans ,not robots.  We have to cling on . We have to belong to someone in order to be independent. In this somewhat daily chaotic course of events of our life we are somehow dependent on others for some or the other reason.  We 'belonged' in the past, we 'belong' in the present and will leave a trace of 'belongingness' in the future.  However, it's true that our ...

Nostalgia

I miss you every single day I miss you every single moment Without you my life's incomplete. The breaking dawn welcomes a new day Sunshine in the morning gives an eternal bliss. The cold breeze, the sweet chirping of birds somehow pleases my inner soul. Far away I see the clock tower, the old mystic abbeys It is reminiscent of my good old happy-go-lucky school days Today after twenty long years, I pass through the streets of  Little Valley High School, I still hear the alarm bell, The hymns, chants, incantation and prayers in Church hall; The cacophony of the students makes me feel nostalgic... I am amazed to see the adjacent alley which was once ours' hidden secret rendezvous Memory never fades never transforms It  remains afresh and new in our mind's gallery.                                                  Arunita Lahiry

Is Lady Macbeth the fourth witch?

 The witches have a supernatural effect on us, "giving the impression of mighty and inscrutable forces behind human life." - Harold Goddard.       One of Shakespeare's most controversial, diabolical, influential, ambitiously manipulative and frightening female character, Lady Macbeth acts as a catalyst by giving birth to the “ murderer” Macbeth and by entirely breaking the stereotype of women being kind and softhearted. She serves as the main influence in Macbeth's life. He trusts her with everything he has. She is, after all, his "dearest partner of greatness." (I, v, 13)      Macbeth was written at a time (1600s) when a large majority of people were interested in witchcraft. Hence,witchcraft play an essential role in the theme of the play. In, act one scene five, Lady Macbeth first appears on stage, reading a letter which shows she is well educated enough to know the difference between right and wrong. This is highly unusual because ...
