Mr Robinson Is Going Into a Coma

Mr. Robinson’s going into a coma 
Slowly… gradually… 
All his family’s seeing him 
But nothing to do anything 
Mr. Robinson’s going into a coma 
What a deep sleep it’s! 
How much long a death is it? 
Little by little Mr. Robinson’s 
going to be unconscious… 
  
The sun will rise in the east 
The sun will set in the west 
Moons… 
     New moon 
                 Half moon 
                          Full moon- 
How many silver moons as glittering coin of  5 Taka* 
Will come and down in the night- sky? 
Mr. Robinson will sleep for how many days 
And his family will stand beside his bed 
Being anxious family members
Will stare at him for how so long…? 
His body’s going to be frozen 
Sense’s going to an unknown world 
Heart beat’s being slower 
  
Mr. Robinson’s going into a coma 
Slowly… gradually… 

*Taka= Bangladeshi money
