'and sometimes by the wind,
'my random lines on sand will be
'erased. What am I now? A ruddy rage?
'He said losing and winning matters not at all!

“A great literary classic should not require an introductory essay and ten pages of footnotes to be understood. It should require a human heart and a curious mind.”

Alok   Mishra
“A poet not only has to observe but also absorb all the emotions objectively in order to express them in verse. Only a calm and detached mind can observe and absorb at the same time. If you participate, you may find the poetic output tilted towards your bias.”
Alok Mishra
