Fertile Pens, Fecund Minds Poem by Aniruddha Pathak
Fertile Pens, Fecund Minds
This profound-sounding wisdom so vague—
Logic dulled as if by curse of plague,
Pompous props in grey wood,
Pens that pensively brood—
How buzzwords in fuzzy minds lay egg!
Where or how seem like pegs
That very question begs—
But fertile pen, fecund mind help feel good.

Be clear and people who agree with it would like it; those that don't, won't. Be sweetly vague (for a prop have a soothing background)and people will bring what they think it means to it, says an academic paper on ‘pseudo-profound bullshit'. Today's world loves vague profundity more than profound but precise wisdom. And holy chickens of buzzwords know how to lay a fertilised egg in some fuzzy minds.

Wisdom of a thinker when reflected in his words lay foundation of great revolutions. Besides religious thinkers like Muhammad (pbuh) , Budha, and Krishna the world has seen Gandhi and Karl Marx who brought political revolutions. In this back ground when I read this thoughtful poem I find Anirudha Pathak is also one of the great thinkers who has been gifted talent to change his thoughts in such marvelous poems.
'...has been a gifted talent to change his thoughts in such marvellous poems'. Have I read it right? Any way, Akthar Jawad, it seems too heavy a crown for me, an undeserved one at that perhaps. Yet I must thank you for the largesse shown.
