Indian Poetry In English, Not At All Indian English Poetry Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Indian poetry in English,
Not by the Englishman,
But by an Indian.

Hamlet,
Paglet,
All writing poetry in English.

Some in the lungi and the vest,
Some in dhoti and kurta,
They are also poets.

Some Biharis taking sattu and litti,
They too poets
And the Englishman asking what these are.

Some Bengalis unable to digest pure milk
As the liver is not in good condition
Mixing water in milk like like Kipling's milkman.

Some Santhals who take dhaman rat's snake
And the wild cats
They too writing poems.
