“भारतीय लोकतंत्र के इतिहास में यह पहला मौका था, जब विपक्षी नेता भी सरकार का खुलकर प्रचार कर रहे थे। विपक्षी नेता कह रहे थे कि हमारी बदकिस्मती कि ये हमे आज़ादी के फौरन बाद नहीं मिले। अगर नेहरू के बदले यही देश के प्रधानमंत्री होते तो देश की स्थिति कुछ और होती। तब आज ना तो लोकतंत्र की ज़रूरत होती और ना विकास की, क्योंकि दोनो उपलब्धियां उसी वक्त प्राप्त कर ली गई होतीं।”
― Rakesh Kayasth, Prajatantra Ke Pakaude

Stop by, recommend books, offer up poems (excerpted), tempt us, taunt us, tell us what to read and where to go (to read it!) Goodreads honors wordsmiths: poets and poetry promoted and prompted here. ~~~ "Poetry is the synthesis of hyacinths and biscuits." -- Carl Sandburg “God has a brown voice, as soft and full as beer.” —Anne Sexton On Clouds – “…what primitive tastes the ancients must have had if their poets were inspired by those absurd, untidy clumps of mist, idiotically jostling one another about…” —Yevgeny Zamyatin “If the poet wants to be a poet, the poet must force the poet to revise. If the poet doesn’t wish to revise, let the poet abandon poetry and take up stamp-collecting or real estate.” —Donald Hall “Poetry is a rich, full-bodied whistle, cracked ice crunching in pails, the night that numbs the leaf, the duel of two nightingales, the sweet pea that has run wild, Creation’s tears in shoulder blades.” —Boris Pasternak “Wanted: a needle swift enough to sew this poem into a blanket.” —Charles Simic “Language is a cracked kettle on which we beat out tunes for bears to dance to, while all the time we long to move the stars to pity.” —Gustave Flaubert “Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It’s that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that’s what the poet does.” —Allen Ginsberg. ~~~~~ Amy King, Moderator Amy King is the recipient of the 2015 Winner of the WNBA Award (Women’s National Book Association).
