...a thought ....

Recently...a friend criticized me of duplicity....in my writings..[.you can call that hypocrisy...for i just used the safer term]....why??...because...my poetic self and my real self are divorced ...and flash contradictorily....Well...Well!!....criticism...i believe...is central to objective n corrective understanding...and so i went back...that i can come forth with better comprehension...


.......and what did i realize???

.......now...those of you who write and write seriously....think!!!...the poetic process is a complicated process that goes on ...inside you...to me...it's a two way process...about transmutation and transformation...{don't be mistaken to think that i am expounding some new theory...i am just couching known thoughts in the garb of my language,it's Eliotian...but then...even Eliot borrowed!!!}....TRANSMUTATION..of the self...it's thoughts,sensations in relations to the other into a reality richer[at least to the poet]than any other form of reality.....and TRANSFORMATION....of this transmuted subject into an object that transcends your immediateness and afford a connection with your richer self.NOW...HOW CAN YOU EXPECT ME AND MY WORK TO BE THE ONE AND SAME??


......bESIDES...WHY DO YOU THINK THE POET IS HAPPIER[THOUGH NOT IN THE CONVENTIONAL SENSE OF THE TERM]THAN THE OTHERS AROUND HIM??

...Because...she leads two lives...one as she is ...as a social entity...another...as a poet...OUR GLOBE IS TOOOOO BIIG...SO..WE DECIDED TO HALF IT INTO NORTH AND SOUTH POLES...A PERSON WHO HAS REALIZED THE INTENSITY OF ONE'S BEING...NEEDS TO SEPARATE IDENTITIES ..SO AS TO HELP THEM FUNCTION PROPERLY...it's what you understand by specialization in Commercial terms....each self performing a specific function...a conglomeration..then..would lead to chaos...chaotic...devoid of creative potential....
...Ever thought why you can't see the sky as a whole??...obviously what a silly question!!!...if you have guts enough to go through my gibberish ideas...you have had sense enough to have it out quite early in life!!...why...and how dare..then..you stereotype a person..and brand some facets of his or her as conventional or different???....you are just viewing a part of the whole...and just because the sky's sunny here...doesn't mean it's cloudy nowhere!!!....An individual is a chasm so fissures are inevitable...but therein lies the potential...of forming deeper gorges...cutting new ravines...that which flows under unfathomable depths is as true as the scum on the apparently shallow surface....

IF MY VIEW OF LIFE and POETRY seems conventional and stereotypical to you....BINGOO!!!...you make a good observer...what i would like to ask is??....how different can difference be???.....how conventional is conventionality???...and we return back to the same precept....there's nothing as such...no demarcations....it's the superficiality of one's vision that allows one to see in those terms[mind you am talking about persons...so plzz don't raise unnecessary debates!!]I have just used my scavengingly parasitic skills to draw nutrition from each thinkable theory...and made a bitter tonic out of it to cure me of allegations....Individuality...one may feel...is something you possess after you have known what generality is..experienced it...in particular....as an individual....a "FARE FORWARD"....philosophy..is what follows...a philosophy....that I always find applicable...almost everywhere!!!
