What Is Indian In Indian English Poetry? Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

What is Indian in Indian English poetry? ,
They ask it often
With regard to the theme of Indianness
And the story of Indianization.
But is it not Indian in Indian English poetry,
You say it yourself?
The writer is,
His self and the psyche
And so his properties and materials?

Indian English poetry is by the Indians
Who after learning from the English
Seek to act
As interpreters, travel and tour guides
And liaison officers,
Telling about India and its problems not so much,
But trying to copy the English poets
As the parodies turn out to be.

Indian English poetry though cannot be like English poetry
Is but colonial English,
The English have left,
But English still remains it
As a memory
And in usage too
As English is now-a-days a global language,
The lingua franca of the world,
The language of connection, science and technology.
