An informative write-up…and I learnt much from it…you’ve made some satire and it was needed… Sir with humility I want to express [not impress] my thoughts about poetry …my little knowledge is ‘assembling coalescing merging conglomerating of emotions [in repose] next expressing...’…elsewhere I read it…like every discipline metamorphosis is must and poetry is no exception…. How to delineate [segregate] emotion and expression by the classical [Cl] Modern [Mdr.] and Post Modern [PMdr]…Neomodern [NMdr] … is an enigmatic and unsolved /unresolved riddle…may be all are nomenclatures jugglery…by pundits… [Excuse me readers] Is there any unchallengeable and unanimously acceptable dip-stick rule to express emotion in the canvas of …Cl…Mdr….PMdr…NMdr. with fixed latitude longitude radius or diameter…without overlapping? [If done poets will be smothered…lolol then emotion will become just rubber stamp] Like fashion/music/dance/ cinema etc. everything repeating and completing…. I’d add overlapping…e.g. in music fusion trend ….where Cl and all others are included en masse…in [one] song…here in India... even classical lyrics are undergoing as song-remix when recorded … may be puritans raise their brows…in sixties Beatles brought revolution in lyric and music and performance..Orchestrations…same with Elvis and recently MJ…. And so on… The part of India I was reared is called Cultural Capital of India …here so many experimentations are flooding in the field of poetry / music/ painting/ dance etc…and it was heralded by R.N.Tagore – RNT [Noble laureate] he deconstructed to reconstruct poetries/ songs /dance drama/ dance etc etc in various permutation and combination and he is included in all the above groups of poet…etc Thanks Sir and learned readers for patience reading… 10+ Ms. Nivedita UK
