The Govt. Of India Cannot Recognize Me Nor Do I Look Up To Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

The Govt. Of India Cannot Recognize Me Nor Do I Look Up To



The Govt.of India cannot recognize me
Nor do I look up to,
I was born as an unknown citizen
And shall die as
Without caring for awards and prizes,
Plaques and honours of citation.

I pride over the love I have got
From the people,
As an unknown citizen, I pride over
The evenings and mornings
Engaged in classicism,
The texts of it.

My manuscripts lie they in tatters,
Torn, ravished and destroyed,
Termite-eaten and gnawed,
But still stand I
Not battered and shattered,
Poetry will brim as long as
I am bodily.
