Poetry:

Bhisma Upreti
A Full stop
I stand
without moving
like a thing devoid of life
like a full stop.
A full stop might mean
end of an opportunity or of an idea
a full stop might also mean
a base for dawn of another opportunity or of another idea.
Where and how should one stand
so that it implies an end
so that it indicates a new beginning
so that it means a hiatus during a journey
oh! to stand might mean so many things!
I stand
without moving
like a thing devoid of life
like a full stop.
Translation : Sarthak
