About this product

Product Information

This is an autobiographical and fictional collection of poems and narratives exploring my distinctly Indian perspective, welcoming readers to a world of raw beauty, true emotion, and sometimes painful reality.Life is an individual journey--taken collectively, so I fantasize . . . a lot!The baring of these personal truths, the sharing of our encounters and the nature of our viewpoint, however, is what creates a sense of community and shared experience that fulfills us in ways we cannot replicate alone. It is the paradox of being human: our aloneness and togetherness at once integral to whom we are. For me, baring my soul to the world, releasing these intensely personal thoughts and feelings, is a freeing experience. Within these pages are solace and inspiration, happiness and sorrow, and a warm feeling of connection and shared understanding. Free verse poetry and flash fiction, it relies on a stream of consciousness and (hopefully) ethereal connection cascading into awareness rather than preconceived rhythm and rhyme. I have tried to artfully craft poetry and prose of myself and my homeland and have tried to bring smiles with the conversations of grandchildren on these pages.I am hoping that my words portray my emotions with resonance and beauty and with fearless honesty.Here are a couple of my poems to tease your fantasy with.ApoptosisMy grandmother always saidWinning is not the end all and be all~By winning, we sanctioned avarice.We need to learn and be wiseWisdom lasts and lasts.But we gain wisdom by losingAnd by yielding, we become the sky!But what of dying?The deaths I have knownOf people known and unknownOf loves that were here and goneAll in split seconds.And soon anything means everythingWhat is left of dying?A heartache?A wail that tears the sky?A sob that echoes through the night?The shell of a body loved and lost?Each cell shriveled and disintegrated?Such games a human gets to playAll in the name of fate!(Apoptosis is defined in medical lingo as "death of cells.")Cabin FeverI turn to poetry in times of sadness, darkness, loneliness, and many other times. It is delusional really to be so into my moods that I have to write poetry. Most of my poems are love poems. They don't rhyme, there is no name for them, and I do not follow any rules. I just write whatever comes to mind. Telling me to write a certain type of poetry literally chokes me.If you had my eyesyou would see this river going south, feeling the sky at its horizonand holding the wind on its breastIf you had my eyesyou would see it hiding behind the little hillsyou would see the flowers lower their gazealong the bends of our dreamlandsIf you had my earsyou would hear the hush of dawn the turtle doves on the windowsillthe cicadas buzzing and the sound of water lapping on the riverbankIf you had my heartyou would come to mebreathe my breathand know the fragrance of jasmine in my hairIf you had my heartyou would not leave me alone herebut take me outside and sing our songsand talk to me about our loveAnd if you had my heartyou would let your thoughts surrenderto the rush of the river, the road, a piece of skyanything~to get me out of here, my love!--Zakiah Sayeed

Prompt professional kind honest communication. Shipping took some time for shipping partner to connect w/USPS, but this is to be expected w/economy/media mail. This shipping method allows the proprietor to offer free shipping and good prices on their items. It was only 12 days from purchase date to delivery date. Item was listed as Very Good condition and arrived in better than described condition. Deck is complete, cards, book, and box are like new. Great price! Thank you very much! 5-stars!
