Jayanta Mahapatra- A Poet Of Relationship Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

A poet of relationship,
Relationship with Orissa and the Oriyas,
Man-woman relationship,
Man and woman taking a siesta
During the summer noon,
Man-woman whispering
During the night time,
Whispering and conspiring.

Relationship,
Connected with different loyalties and allegiances,
Personal and intimate,
Relationship
As connections with the soil,
The land of birth and the roots of nativity,
Relationship
The intricacies of it,
Twitching and darker.
