Abul Kalam Azad

Abul Kalam Azad; I am a queer transfemme poet ( they / she) , born in India, recently moved to Stockholm through Tokyo. My words, sometimes, rally with the screams of ghettoized subjects in genocidal lands , and sometimes , caress the tears of a lonely immigrant weeping quietly into the phone in Tokyo metro , and sometimes, become the fingers that form the fist of a transfemme strutting proud on a hostile street. But all the time, they are digging for roses in a world that severs all the roots.
