I met the devil on a Friday night.
We danced to the phat bari sax.
Smoke choked out any words I could say,
Paying a heavy tax.
The sky was maroon with contemptible past,
The sound iridescently smooth.
The trombone a-swung to the rhythm of us,
Burning a hole in the truth.
I met the devil on a Friday night,
Then woke up on Saturday lone.
I wish; I made this whole story up.
There's no one to call on the phone.

If Dania makes video of her husband that is offense but If Zafar Sapari spies us through our cell phones tabs, laptops, cams and mics and records everything that is gerat???

Kahin IG ki sifarsh to kahin DG ki meharbaniyan,
Zafar sapari bari lambi chori hain teri kahaniyan..

(Dedicated to my Beautiful Little Queen Fiancée Sultana Yeasmin)
In the starry lap of mangrove
I sought you with a queen crown
Cordial arms of maple tree
Invited you to my heart
Where I'll go dawn to dust,
Where I'll go twilight to daylight
Moments are crawling to me
Without you, like the long sighs
What I said that's not fairytale
What I wrote that's not fiction bell
What I felt that's not fabrication gel
All virtual messages are truthful gale
I sought you in the pure embryo of raindrops
I sought you in the stage of unruly time loops
I sought you as radar of the constellation river
For all galaxies, I sought you as a source of power
From the Janali Baper Bari to universe horizon
From the Bay of Bengal to the highest Paradise lawn
I sought you beside me as my soul queen forever
Please; be mine
Please; be mine

Rationalizing cost humanity Paradise
with burden to choose right the price
an ego to be awaken to rise
when the herd falls asleep to vice
Snake pride tends to hide
selfishness in a tomb inside
righteous façade outside
to camouflage grudges' bite
Passing blame for robbery of joy
burning culprit in thoughts like toy
scattering ashes' sparks to destroy
compassion that love may deploy
As part of humanity body
a sneeze in Wuhan is felt in Bari
a boomerang that travels to return
multiplied to quench or to burn
Only God reads thoughts judges right
His lovelight perfection shines bright
through any window open to His light
sprouting charity everywhere in sight
