Modern, Modernist Or Postmodern? Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Modern, Modernist Or Postmodern?



Modern, modernist or postmodern,
Frankly speaking,
My father had been conservative,
But liberal, humanitarian and philanthropic,
But odd, out-dated and outmoded
Always asking me,
Why did you visit the cinema hall,
Was the film you saw a religious one,
What did you learn from?

So, take it for that I am becoming modern
With the radio, the bicycle and the watch,
The belt, the tie and the suit and boots,
A loafer, a rambler I
Colouring, dyeing my hair and beards
A townsman I, a city-dweller I,
Ultra-modern and modernist,
Frank and bold,
With the fashion designing
I turning into a postmodern,
A tourister, a globalist.
