Kipling, see you,
An Indian sepoy writing in English,
Calling himself
An Indian English poet,
...
I am old matric,
Haven't you heard,
Old is gold,
Gold is old,
...
Tandava,
Shiva-tandava,
Shiva doing tandava,
Tandava nritya.
...
Tandava,
Shiva-tandava,
Shiva doing tandava,
Tandava nritya.
...
Kipling's Indian sepoy too has turned into
a writer of verses,
Whatever it is coming in his mind idly
He putting down on the webs
...
Dark is beautiful
As light comes breaking
And beaming from darkness,
Light and darkness are the two sides
...
Today's poetry
Is of versifiers, poetasters,
Commoners and non-poets
Calling themselves poets,
...
What's your name,
Said he,
Mocchu Hindustani
Twirling the mustache,
...
The problem of Indian English verse,
The practitioners
Parody and plagiarize they
The British and American models
...
