“Subject : Re: Thank You Sir
who was the national poet of India? wait, i thought that was you...
Thank you for the encouragement, Firoze, always..”
I received this message from a young fiery poet
and not to embarrass her privacy I have not used her name..
She means a lot to poetry, poetry that is about poetry
and not about human hate for any person for his views or for what he writes.
We all write about our experience that may not be the same or ever felt by the reader
So every poet deserves some sympathy and liberty for his indigenous idioms and
masturbative metaphors..
No I am not the national poet of India I state
I have no aspirations for such an august position
I would hate this has nothing to with envy
or jealousy
I reiterate..
You are what you are thoughtlessness
In a thought innate
Whether you write in English Afrikaans
Hindi Urdu Persian no man has the right
to berate what you have written is your freedom of thought
its up to him your good will translate
but than colonialism is part of an English mans
doomed state for him all colored poets are
basically third rate..his upper lipped
papier -mache ass
being licked by white women poets
poetry is about humility, human kindness
human bonding human love and all such trait
poetry is not bombast, top 500 poet
at poem hunter saturated disillusioned
demystified
at St Peters Gate
the older poets hate the younger poets
even those more superior than them
who on the threshold wait
poetry is about 10 year olds
writing much better than
groggy adulthood poets failures
its pure talent that one from the other
separates
here at poem hunter especially at the forum
bomb after bomb on the soul of poetry detonates
the hogs searching for pearls of wisdom
among the more prehistoric primates
not only your self respect but your dignity
as a human deflates
thank you lady poet for your message
that my love for your defiance
your fighting American spirit
reinstates kick ass as hard as you can
of your detractors critics ingratiates
