Aftab Yusuf Shaikh: September 2017

What inch of earth

will we have to

stand upon, when

our institutions turn out

to be mere illusions.

- Aftab Yusuf Shaikh

When the lover saw the

dragger in his back held

by his very own love,

he said, 'My Love, twist it hard and pluck the life out of me.

Kill me by your hands.

Be kind, let not me live after this treachery.'

-Aftab Yusuf Shaikh
