Commentary on the poem, “MORGUE”:
I believe that “writing “ can be considered as craft which are permitted to improve or develop; whereas poetry is quite different from craft .
It is emotional outburst, like spring or geyser , or eruption of volcano (gift of Nature);………
It is exclusively unique expression of the poet . There shouldn’t be any imitation or Xerox of a particular poet’s emotion; It spoils the poet’s genuine ness.
We can discuss the great poems from the standpoint of inspiration, theme ,language genre etc. And not to manufacture poets in the workshops; it will lead us to dig ‘BURIAL” ground for poetry!

(9). Title : Morgue
I wanted to roam in a garden of flora
To smell the fragrance of summer flowers
But I stepped by mistake to a poetry Morgue
Where saw a cluster of elite bards, not my familiar.
Sitting in front of casket brought by poetry mentor;
One by one the poems from casket appeared
To those elite judges who; like surgeon
Dissected and diagnosed the lines and words
Which were torn or plucked from the corpse of verse
To explain the emotion, meaning ,theme
Of which the poets themselves were (perhaps), unaware!
