Three Hundred Ramayanas By A.K.Ramanujan: A Casual Attempt Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Actually, Ramanujan is in the habit of criticizing
And commenting upon
In an unwanted way,
So many take to him not,
Take to his frivolous criticism not
In the right sense
As he chuckles, grins,
Comments and taunts
Using and applying in
His own gimmicks,
Wit, irony and humour,
Fun, pun and doublespeak,
Satire and joke.

Without having seen the Ramayana artistes,
The Thai, Malaysian, Cambodian,
Mauritian, Fijian,
Chinese, Tibetan
Comments he,
Scomments and critiques
Ram-bhakta Hanuman,
Sita, Rama,
Lakshman
The nose cutter of
Surpanakha,
Ravana
Who but not a villain,
But a scholar, as some say it.
