**ফটিকা**

তোৰ মুখৰ ভিতৰৰ সেই ৰক্ত-জবা দালে কেৱল লৰচৰ কৰে।
আজি খাওঁ, কালি খাওঁ বুলি ঘনাই চিঞৰে।
কি কৰিবি তই? 
নাখালেও নোৱাৰি, খাবলৈ যাই যাওঁ আঠ ভৰিত।
অলপ ৰৈ যা।
তোৰ অবয়বক অপমান কৰি যাবি কলৈ।
সদ্যহতে পৰি ৰবি তই গভীৰ খালৈত।
প্ৰকৃততে যকৃতত তই নিতৌ নৱ-নৱ্য দ্ৰাবক ধাল'।
শেষত গৈ তোৰ নিস্পাপ কলেৱৰত ভেষজৰ ৰং তৰ'।
কি ভুল আছিল তোৰ আই জনিৰ?
নজনাকে তোক জন্ম দি আজি আদবাটতে ৰৈ থাকে,‌ যেন তই আহি ভাত দুমুঠি খাই যাবি।
আজিও বুটলিবলৈ ৰৈ থাকে তোৰ পিৰিচৰ পৰা সৰি পৰা সেই অমল-লেখিয়া তণ্ডুল।
খালি তই, মৰিলি তই, তথাপিও পৰশুৰাম হৈ দেখাও সেইতো তোৰ আইৰ ভুল।
নুবুজিবি তই, নুশুনিবি তই, মাৰিবি তই, মৰিবি তই, এদিন-দুদিনকৈ তিলিকতে যাবি ক্ষয়।
তিমিৰ ৰজনীৰ কোলাত অলিয়ে-গলিয়ে কৰ' তত্ত্ৱাৱধায়ক-গিৰী।
আলপৈচান ধৰোঁতা নাই, নাই তোৰ কোনো তলব। 
অদৃশ্য কল্পনাৰ সন্মুখত দেখাইচ' তোৰ অহেতুক গৰব।
তই কোন?
তই এজন অপদাৰ্থ মদাহী।
তোৰ জীৱনতো এটা কলমৰ দৰে য'ত নাই কোনো চিয়াঁহী।

- কুমাৰ কৃষ্ণ শৰ্মা।

• Mobiles, Search Engines and We The People • 

Google, Yahoo, Binge etc. are some of the most favoured behemoth social podiums available today and it plays a significant role in every persons lives. If we compare Google with our lives, it sits on a enviable position and in the aura around us. It's simple to say that we are voguishly known as a race of Homo sapiens, a race against each other, fading from our punctilious maneuvers, spending ethical times on cellular-ism and unhealthy lifestyles are getting peculiarly common with every inchmeal. A diaspora of flock moving towards artificial intelligence. Indeed,  a necessary decision and venture to rock-bottom our old intelligence nexus. A positive side of social search engine fora is that we can get and grasp everything knowledgeable, righteously ours, spending limited times by poking our heads inside our mobiles for hours and then there are more cunning way to explore these gateways and its extravagant data available on world wide web. Ironically speaking, if, just for one day these web spiders goes down what will be its dicey ramification? A total darkness will engulf the entire cosmos, our cellular devices will go broke, people will suffer from stigma and paranoia. It is us who got habituated with these neural network. It will be foolish to blame or defame all these wonderful inventions made by astute technicians or developers but the problem lies with us and we are getting unknowingly familiar with these fathomless cosmic identities. I think there should be a boundary inside our minds. For instance, we have a boundary to differentiate left or right, green or red, right or wrong. People like me or many people like me are very depended on these search engines. Whether searching a word on web even though he or she knows the correct meaning and the exact spelling of that word, just to get brand tagged by some search engine and hence someway or the other we get habituated by it. There are countless activities still available for our daily lives. Such as, Playing with friends, group of buddies and countless amusement times with them, family, outing, nature, art, love etc. etc. are just to name a few. I know many people are engaged in all sort of mentioned activities but my utmost advice to younger generations out there to try to incorporate all of the above mentioned tasks in their day to day lives. It will not only boost their health but it'll also highlight their connection to the social awareness and to the society they prevail. Lastly, search engines are important, they are not bad for our society but mostly it is paramount for us to build a successive and sustainable confidence level within us so that we do not need to clarify ourselves by typing 'five plus five' equals to ten in a calculator. Technology are invented by us, technology can't invent technology (most of the time). A hope to see you again with full of zeal and boldness within you.
