What Has India Given To Me For My Writing? Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

What Has India Given To Me For My Writing?



It is not that I am posting my poems on the net
Without spending anything
And my poems on the database websites,
But reading for three decades day and night,
Burning the midnight lamp,
What did I,
Did I get,
What did India give to me?

My first book of poems appeared in 1987-88
And thereafter dozens of books of poetry and criticism
And I worked on my own
Without taking a grant,
nor was anyone to help me
Or report about it.
