Choka Poem
- Shreeram Shrestha
Cold weather
When hardened by coldness
Warm embrace
Opened happiness
Holding on tightly
Pulling towards myself
Hot heart
Seen dream
Hurt while dreaming
Looking at the broken mirror
Deformed scene
While expressing growing anger
Growing hostility
When the black mind grew up
misfortune occurred
Relatives became strangers
Being alone
Sitting in agony
Straight forward mind
curiosity piled up
became madness
Becoming senseless
In the form of unconsciousness
As time goes on
It's over
circling like a snake
I felt terrified
While trying to run away being coward
Legs bounded
Becoming a scapegoat
Dedication of life. -Trs. by Saroj Bogati
