Vakrokti, Vakrokti And Kutokti Had Been The Chief Property Of A.K.Ramanujan Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Vakrokti,
Vakrokti had been
The chief property,
Property of A.K.Ramanujan
Who relished upon,
Enjoying it,
Hitching onto.

A poet humorous,
Satiric,
Ironical
Using and applying in
Fun, pun, doublespeak,
Rubbing salt into,
Spicing with chilly and tamarind.

Kucch khatta, kuccha mitha
The experiences of life,
Something as sweet, something sour,
But Ramanujan
Hinging upon vakrokti,
Statements but crooked,
Hooked, bent and forked,
Vyangyatamak, satiric and cutting through.

And apart from it Vakrokti,
It is kutokti, kut plus ukti,
Diplomatically critical statement
Though no diplomat was he
Plotting and planning
And he derived pleasure from
Pins, screws and perforations.

But what surpasses it even kutokti,
Kut ukti,
Critical statement
Is doublespeak
And he does it on par excellence with,
Saying it something,
Meaning it something,
Passing it as a comment,
A log hurled upon the passer-by.

And perhaps the ironist,
The gentleman critical,
Polished and mannered
Is the most critical fellow
Cultured and civilized
But ironical enough,
Taunting through doublespeak.
