[ALOCHONA] RE: The fate of my 'razakar' poem

     Dear Alochok,
 
                   You have responded very well to the real message of my poem which was triggered by an act of a Razakar in Nov. 2007. Did the poem make you feel that you've been pushed back to 1971 against your will? If the answer is "yes" then that is my message:
              All of Bangladesh is continuously and persistently being pushed back to 1971 by the Razakars and their activities. Please do not blame the messenger who bears the sad message of this sordid, regressive situation. It is not possible to make any progress with shackles around your ankles.. It is no use making any movement forward -- all forward movement is nullified by the unresolved issue of punishing the war criminals of 1971. This unresolved issue is a vile curse upon the House of Free Bangladesh.
              We are all being held HOSTAGE by the logic of 1971 Genocide: "Let us mass murder those who oppose our desire to create an Empire of Islam EXACTLY according to our perception its formation."

               Mr. S. A. Hannan just expressed this desire recently, yes, in 2008, as a spokesman for the Jammat in no uncertain terms.  The logic of 1971 Genocide is with us. Alive and kicking!

               Thanks.

The link says at the end, "Farida Majid teaches in the United States" and now we know exactly what the whole bunch you teach there.... Do you want us all to be your poetry class students???? We truly appreciate your poem that brings 71 all the way up to us nay the vice versa. Enough is enough. Can we now expect at least one more poem from you that will make us living in 2008 and forward-looking as well and if possible add some spices in it that will certainly attract foreign investment into Bangladesh and Bangladeshi politicians to honest, sincere and constructive thoughts and programs to pave the way to development and prosperity as opposed to the retrogressive undercurrent? We badly need that - we badly need another poem from you, pleaseeeee. Regards. Wohid

       I thank all of you folks in this forum for your valuable comments on the early impromptu version of the poem.
 
 The accompanying illustration is provided by the editor of the Literature page of the Daily Star. To what extent it resembles the apostrophe of my poem I cannot tell since I have never met him. But someone 'phoned to say that it bears a striking resemblance.
 
         Sincerely
