Burquawalli As A Professor English Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Burquawalli,
Miss Ghumtawalli,
Lajawanti,
Purdahwalli
As a prof. of English,
Teaching
Spenser, Wyatt, Drayton,
Shakespeare, Milton, Marvell,
Herbert, Herrick,
Wordsworth, Keats, Shelley,
Browning, Tennyson, Arnold,
Hardy and Lawrence,
A young and beautiful Muslim girl
But under the purdah,
The burkha
Calling with gestures,
So sweetie for Mian
Who prides over her modernity
But is himself conservative.
