This year, to observe 16 December, we have curated a list of four diverse yet fascinating poetry books for you to immerse yourself in.
My Bangla Sings out every morning One language Many songs
I fell asleep to the chatters of cicadas on a quiet summer night
A long stretch of time / passed in prison
Women and the earth have to tolerate a lot. –Kaajal (1965)
My heart is an oligarch: A staunch, pot-bellied, knuckle-cracking middle-aged man lounging carelessly, lazily in his sitting room with his limbs spread out on a settee
I spent the last night with your lover
Healthy water-bodies are sunk by envy-blind waste’s outburst
I carry them openly in these calloused hands and hold them out to you could you tell me I'm worthy of love

When Anne Carson said– All lovers believe they are inventing love, she was perhaps right
I carry them openly in these calloused hands and hold them out to you could you tell me I'm worthy of love
