Dispossessed Nests By Jayanta Mahapatra

Dispossessed Nests by Jayanta Mahapatra Impresses it not With its vision and imagery As it a book Based on a news item Taking to poverty deaths And terrorism and explosion. Dispossessed Nests is a book Of India through the Khalistan Movement, The Bhopal Gas Tragedy, dealing with unrest, death and explosion And the resultant tragedy And the aftermath of it. The book is like his Temple, Not George Herbert's Temple, But a Mahapatrian Temple Meaning out of hunger deaths, The old couple committing suicide, Mocking our machinery And the administration. How do the nests become dispossessed, How pain and pity speak through, Poverty and disaster take over, Wreaking havoc to all, Destroying it all What it is good?
