आकुल हो तुम बाँह पसारे किन्तु देहरी पर रुक जाते असमंजस में पाँव तुम्हारे

अवहेलना जगत की करता है, मन का व्याकरण निराला किन्तु रीतियों की वेदी पर जलते स्वप्न विहँसती ज्वाला सब कुछ धुँधला-धुँधला दिखता नयन-नीर की नदी किनारे आकुल हो तुम बाँह पसारे

समझौतों में जीते-जीते मरुथल होती हृद्‌-फुलवारी मृदुजल का यदि स्रोत मिले तो विस्मय करती दुनिया सारी शुष्क काष्ठ पूजित होते हैं काटे जाते हरे जवारे आकुल हो तुम बाँह पसारे

पीड़ा, घुटन, असंतोषों को हँस कर सह लेना वाँछित है मन के अविकल भाव प्रदर्शन की प्रत्येक कला लाँछित है नियति बता कर चुप करने को तत्पर हैं उपदेशक सारे आकुल हो तुम बाँह पसारे

जड़ता का व्यामोह तोड़ना प्रायः यहाँ असम्भव सा है लहू-लुहान पंख हैं फिर भी पिंजरों का अभिमान सुआ है मुक्ति-कामना असह हुई तो पहुँचा देती संसृति पारे आकुल हो तुम बाँह पसारे

The Poet

अमिताभ त्रिपाठी 'अमित'

Amitabh Tripathi ‘Amit’

Amitabh Tripathi 'Amit' belongs to a rare class of contemporary Hindi poets who write to hold up an unflinching mirror to society. His verse is stripped of complex academic jargon and strikes directly at the center of modern Indian realities. In works like his celebrated poem "Bas Itna Sa Samachar Hai" (This is All the News There Is), Tripathi captures the everyday ironies, widespread corruption, and moral compromises of the present age with devastating precision. He dismantles hollow idealism and gives a powerful voice to the common man navigating a broken system. To read Amitabh Tripathi is to be awakened from civic slumber. His poems are not merely complaints; they are urgent pleas for a return to collective conscience and integrity.

Paired Painting

Untitled (Disappointed)

In this poignant composition, Jogesh Chandra Seal captures the quiet, heavy ache of human longing. We see a young woman retreating into the shadows of a great tree, her posture reflecting a soul turned inward by sorrow or unfulfilled expectation. She stands beside a peacock, a traditional symbol of love and longing in Indian aesthetics, yet the bird appears as a silent witness to her solitude rather than a partner in joy. The painting invites us to empathize with the universal experience of disappointment, expressed here through the delicate folds of her sari and the downcast gaze that speaks volumes of a heart burdened by its own secrets. It is a masterful study of the quiet moments when life does not unfold as we once dared to dream.
