Adil Jussawalla Named Poet Laureate Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

A poet of Bombay
Who divided his time
In between Europe and India
During his education at Oxford and Cambridge,
Who taught for a brief stint
And wrote poetry pieces
Of the jointless times,
Tidbits of thought and idea,
Tagging imagery and reminiscence
To patch up,
One whose chose literary journalism
With his start from Land's End
To Missing Person to Trying to Say Goodbye
To Right Kind of Dog

Now the recipient of Poet Laureate of the 12th Tata Lit. Live! ,
The Mumbai Litfest 2021
For his poetic guts and stamina,
The capacity to present and picture
The broken images as an artistic image,
A sculptural thing,
To penetrate into the jointless times
Of modernity, post-modernity.
