The great poet Shaheed Quaderi had been suffering from kidney ailments for the past decade. Her little apartment had been transformed after Shaheed bhai moved in — books now covered every surface of the house. The young poet was incredulous, but Shaheed bhai snuck into his bathroom where he happened to have a copy of the poet’s new book stashed away. The young poet had nearly died of excitement. With Shaheed bhai no longer around, these little biographical nuggets will fade away, and I am sure that that particular young poet he pranked has forgiven him since then.
