Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
I wonder why
we fight
among us
with delusion
of grandeur!
God is an
Octopus,
a formidable
ramified power.
Buddhism
Christianity
Hinduism
Islam
Judaism
Sikhism
Taoism
and
Zoroastrianism
are His
long appended
arms
with which
He controls
our life on the
earth.
Why should we
fight!

Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
Mantis,
o
Mantis,
what
did
you
pray?
I
did
pray
that
the
world
be
blessed
and
gay.
Mantis,
o
Mantis,
what
did
you
prey?
I
did
prey
two
ants
fallen
from
the
tray
of
a
flying
fay.
Mantis,
o
Mantis,
where
do
you
stay?
I
stay
on
the
delicate
grass
and
on
barren
hay.
Mantis,
o
Mantis,
where
did
you
go
yesterday?
Yesterday
I
went
to
Bengal's
bay
to
say
an
evil
fay
would
come
the
way
of
the
sun's
ray
that
day
and
I
came
to
pray
for
a
good
day.

Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
I am neither a Hindu,
nor a Muslim,
nor a Christian,
nor a Sikh,
nor a Jew,
nor a Buddhist,
nor a Zoroastrian.
Darkness or Kali
as I call it
is
my
Religion;
Dark Nothingness
I meditate on.

Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
Seeing
a
jackal
beat
on
a
novel
drum
A
tiger,
with
eagerness
at
its
peak,
Wished
to
do
the
very
same
-
And
struck
on
the
drum
with
a
stick!
The
drum
was
really
a
nest
of
wasps,
Suddenly
they
attacked
the
foolish
tiger
Who
flew
fast
and
fell
into
a
deep
pit
Where
he
died
in
groaning
pain
severe!
The
jackal's
pretending
to
play
on
the
drum,
For
he
was
in
a
revengeful
mood
To
take
the
tiger's
life
who
killed
The
she-
jackal,
his
love,
sweet
and
good!

Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
Lo!
Years
back
I
gelded
my
head
And
ergo
it
knew
no
honeydew;
Today
its
sinews're
not
sluggish
And
it's
no
time
the
cud
to
chew!

ABC, ABC,
After ABC
comes D,
EFG, HIJ,
After HIJ
comes K,
LMN, OPQ,
Then come
RSTU,
RSTU, RSTU,
VWX, Y for You,
I'm learning
These abed
And at last
I find Z.
Ha ha ha!

Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
I see heaps of
rotten garbage
with flies and
mosquitoes,
I hear noisy
sexy songs,
I smell stinking
odour,
I eat latrine-
worms,
I touch broken
rusty
machines,
I think of
profusely
urinating
on basils, lifting
a leg like a dog
and I tear
sunflowers to
pieces.

Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
I
have
created
you
only
to
obey
my
command
and
only
to
help
me!
But
you,
bloody,
very
often,
in
the
name
of
'link
failure'
or
so,
you
make
me
your
slave!

Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
Thank You
has become
very old.
Though
Thank You
is old,
he is
still young
and full
of vigour.
Thank You
has got
a special
blessing
from God:
Thank You
will never die.

Mandal Bijoy Beg Poem
My
Master
knows
I'm
faithful
and
true
In
guarding
his
house
day
and
night,
I
bark
at
the
unknown
and
unfamiliar
And
run
after
'he
thieves
on
sight.
