“Time has wasted itself
doing absolutely nothing!
I only wish it could turn back
and bring
me another opportunity
to experience and see,
fathom and breathe,
live with her and leave
the world on its own,
that night of passionate solitude.”
Alok Mishra, Thoughts Between Life and Death

Alok   Mishra
“And we are still here
walking in this maze of perplexing
entries and problematic exits.
No words exchanged.
Even our eyes seldom throw
some letters of compassion or contempt
on each other.
I believe you, and I do so.
I know only you may show
the final door to enter
with no exit that follows.”
Alok Mishra, Thoughts Between Life and Death

Alok   Mishra
“When we two parted,
there was no agony in either
of the two
who
lived all our lives together,
so close and near,
and so, so dear
one could hardly guess
one from the other.”
Alok Mishra, Thoughts Between Life and Death

“Criticism that thrives on exaggeration or selective reading ultimately undermines its own credibility.”
Alok Mishra

Alok   Mishra
“Poetry is frequently introduced as an object of dissection rather than an experience of encounter. Students are trained to hunt for metaphors, symbols, and devices before they are allowed to feel the poem. This premature intellectualisation breeds anxiety rather than appreciation.”
