For Emma Adamyan
This is not amnesia, Indira. Just get to the feel of it. This is a line from thousand and one stories!
Anticlimax poem…have said so eloquent ever…here the occult feeling lies… Voted 10++ Ms. Nivedita UK PS In PH There is series of poems on Amnesia [6] by Dr. Sakti P. Ckakravorty n
The background is that I had written a poem “Back to Life” and posted its first version which according to Emma Admayan was brighter. I had deleted the poem and had forgotten what I had written, which is not an inhuman act in any case. What prompted me to write this was the eloquence attached to this expression. In One Hundred Years of Solitude”, and which I have also mentioned elsewhere, the collective amnesia or forgetfulness, in magic realism is a theme where upon Gabriel Garcia Marquez has built his work, A Noble prize winner. In another place I have mentioned in some other connection to a village that has lost memory. This is figurative in much sense, and has been applied in some works. The other basic theme is an attempt to break through the time and space and bring reality either in accentuated form or for creating an enhanced element of wonder and surprise. I have further written a poem 'My Forgetfulness' for some further explanations. Thanks for taking interest.
Have some one said Any thing so eloquent Ever........to err is human.. to forget is inhuman..... i lked the idea....10 read mine..a poet can...an excellence
Thanks Bangla for sympathizing here. There is nothing about the hatredness of humanity. This is a simple expression, we come across. The cosmic inference you have drawn is probably an exaggeration and marred by some flaw of your perception. Thanks for knowing that I 'write alone and bleed much'
well written hatredness towards the whole civilization where humanity is now a commodity. thank you poet write alone, bleed much.
