Brief Bio
Author of two collection of poems; The Naïve Bird and The Silent Monsoon; Mr Basanta Kumar Kar hails from Orissa, India. Currently he holds a senior position in an international development organization. His poems have appeared in a number of international and national magazines and journals like Bewildering Stories, Smoking poet, Kritya, Tsar Books, BBC, NDTV, Mental Health Poetry, UN Solution Exchange, Human Touch, EndVAW/John Hopkins , Peace and Conflict Monitor etc.

The Unfold Pinnacle (unpublished) is written on real life stories on women. I have completed 62 poems on 62 women who are multiple marginalised and residing in various Indian states. It is an effort towards elucidating the feeling of oneness with our fellow brethren who have been left behind in the society’s urge to achieve materialistic milestones and whose voices fall silent before touching us.

The poems are experimental and innovative. Perhaps first of its kind, the poems are finding its own niche.

Sharing few links on the published poems

Path Ahead

Making you understand takes aeons.

I vanish.

You stroll with your ethereal world

smothering promises

of a lustrous future ahead.



The future seizes the past

the present recoils into the past.

Uncertainty spreads a cast

I miss you.



The path ahead

remains the path desired,

let your fragrance prevail

more destined than temporal.



A story untold

a voice unfurled

shared between the two

"wish you all the… Continue

New Rhinoceros Children's Book

I've been having a great year and creating lots of new things with Jenny. Over Christmas I was missing my guy Jack, so I wrote a book for him, then Jenny illustrated it. It's called The Toughskin Rhinoceros Wrangler Company. It's a simple story about the lengths we are willing to go to to see the people we miss. And there are dancing rhinoceroses. Here's some of Jenny's art…See More

The Threshold Bookcast : Chapter 13 : Keys To Ascension

Chapter 13 : Keys To AscensionRahu Lüli, the teenage monk from Kõrgus, is once again the central character of the weekly instalment of the Threshold Bookcast. This time, we find the novice reminiscing as he explores unknown territory uphill, following a hunch that has occurred to him prior to the morning ritual. « « Gazing up, the apprentice had detected an odd detail. Something was decidedly wrong about the view, and it couldn't but have a meaning. Over the years, the pitch black walls of…See More

Art is my World

During my earliest year in Elementary School, the only hobby that steals my time is sketching on my notebook. While my teacher is discussing and writing on the board, I am in my chair at the back busy in sketching.In that time I believed that learning could not be taken only from school, and knowledge is not only about speaking and writing but also drawing.My mother exasperated every time she checks my notebook because what she found was not my homework but those faces of my favorite anime like…See More
