Jayanta Mahapatra As A Poet Of Ideas Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Jayanta Mahapatra is a poet of ideas,
Ideas, only ideas and images
As the plays of George Bernard Shaw are,
The plays of ideas
And he a talk man giving talks
So is Jayanta Mahapatra
A professor of physics, but a poet of English,
Indian English
Absurd, existential,
Samuel Beckettian
Delving into the existential drama of the absurd,
Questioning the purpose of living,
Who we are, what our purpose,
Why are we.
