The Jackfruit And The Flies



One day in summer
We were eating a jackfruit
Suddenly some flies
Smelling odor from somewhere
Came as the unwanted guests.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

It is jack fruit season in Bangalsdesh at the moment and I see the vendors selling their produce on the streets. There are many issues that have to be addressed about Bangaladesh, but poets here have chosen to address other issues.

a vivid portrayal of a common situation in third world countries (third world-a racist and inapt term) a simple poem that carries a message of everyday life, maybe the politicians too read poetry, but i guess not tc :)
