Outerspace

...



Daddy Daddy, it was just like you said
Now that the living outnumber the dead.

Where I come from it's a long thin thread
Across an ocean, down a river of red.
Now that the living outnumber the dead.
I'm one of many.

Daddy Daddy, it was just like you said
Now that the living outnumber the dead.
Speak my language.

Hello. Hello.
Here come the quick. There go the dead.
Here they come.
Bright red.
Speak my language.


- Laurie Anderson song

The Covers for my book

Hi everyone, I had a plan of publishing my first book within Rs. 30. Seem to have done that! Here are the covers. Of course, in print it looks a little different, more like college notes. The book is completely home-printed. It is my humble protest against the establishment.

Sold some copies at the Kolkata book fair last night. If you want to buy one, please write to me at mostpeculiarman@gmail.com or call me at +919831082194. Anyone willing to keep the book at shops can also write to me or call. The price, however, I do not intend to raise under any circumstances.

I will, of course, not remove any poems from the blog. After all, it's about reaching out.

Warmth,

Inam.

From printing for Intra-school poetry competition to publishing his own book - Inam continues..

One of the first admirers of your work wants to know from where he can purchase your book..
