Poetry:
Jeevan Acharya
A Sculptor
While visiting artifacts around many sculptures
I praised those hands.
I searched for that brain, that body, or
that artist.
One of the sculptures moved about, to
surprise me and making me think, that
the artworks were not only elegant but also lively.
Oh! from amidst the assembly of statues
that sculptures started to speak too;
'buy me first, Sir!
I am too hungry.”
Translated from Nepali by Suman Pokhrel
