New Generation Of Indian English Poets & Poetesses Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

New Generation Of Indian English Poets & Poetesses



The mod girls as fashionistas and socialites,
Urban and metropolitan,
From towns and cities,
Mega and metropolitan
With no work to do
Just with managerial expertise
And management skill
Trying to come to light
Through poetry-writing.

The comfortable and difficult daughter
Of the businessmen, the rich and the wealthy
And the well-to-do,
Hoteliers and hostellers,
Touring and travelling
Convent-educated girls
Trying their best to poetesses
And the poets by being
Of the diaspora dais
After settling overseas
And talking of India from there.

The media managers, interior decorators,
Beauticians, NGO women,
The NRI men,
The disco jockeys,
The yoga gurus
And the disciple sadhvis
In the rudrakshmalas,
Rajneeshites
And the showy zen-practitioners,
Not the real,
The verse-practitioners
Of the new age and new times,
The media favourites
Partying and dancing
And arranging for the book release
In five-star hotels.
