Sample Poem from One Step Away from Epic by Ayan Ghosh
“One Step Away from Epic”
Never pick-up scattered grains. Be the best
Ant, make line for procession in silence.
Signals are cunning in spirit. Allow
Zebra-crossing to move forward.
Rain sharpen its spear

Waits for women. Men struggle to
Feel the basic truth. Epic strives
To be addressed.
Stories hide behind the magic lantern…
