Is Earth An Alien World's Hell? Poem by Aniruddha Pathak
Is Earth An Alien World's Hell?
A point of his perennial plunder,
Sometimes I do shudder to wonder
If this Earth were mankind's last blunder,
Or a hell be to ‘nother world;
Hear, hear, tells me a cooing bird,
The truth seems to be as under:
Both hell and heaven
Here are and nowhere.

I like this poem. to MyPoemList. , i'd like it even if i didn't understand it as the poet understands it! It's a good mix of nice rhyme WITH not bothering to rhyme everywhere [ just for rhyme's sake ]. Perhaps this 'says' that " mankind" is/are " Aliens" sent to Earth as if Earth were ...OR Heaven? For some humans Earth is " " , and for others " Heaven" . bri :)
Bri, It just occurred to me... If I have to judge, and if I can select only one poem, I would rather go for the other poem you commented on... 'Art's its own reward', if I remember the title right. Not this one.
First, thanks for ''to My Poem List', Your point about rhyming, not rhyming, is mature and is taken. Yes, rhyme is a good servant, can't me a poet's master. But here I get you. Analyse and get paralysed. Analyse, paraphrase a poem as in schools I remember our teachers used to ask, but there is nothing more stupid than that. It is to kill the poem, nothing else. Don't work too hard on interpretation
