“Doc was into his own apprenticeship as a skip tracer, and each, gradually locating a different karmic thermal above the megalopolis, had watched the other glide away into a different fate.”

“Night, street and streetlight, drugstore,
The purposeless, half-dim, drab light.
For all the use live on a quarter century –
Nothing will change. There’s no way out.
–
You’ll die – and start all over, live twice,
Everything repeats itself, just as it was:
Night, the canal’s rippled icy surface,
The drugstore, the street, and streetlight.”

“আমাকে সে নিয়েছিলো ডেকে;
বলেছিলো: ‘এ নদীর জল
তোমার চোখের মত ম্লান বেতফল:
সব ক্লান্তি রক্তের থেকে
স্নিগ্ধ রাখছে পটভূমি;
এই নদী তুমি।
‘এর নাম ধানসিঁড়ি বুঝি?’
মাছরাঙাদের বললাম;
গভীর মেয়েটি এসে দিয়েছিলো নাম।
আজো আমি মেয়েটিকে খুঁজি;
জলের অপার সিঁড়ি বেয়ে
কোথায় যে চলে গেছে মেয়ে।”
