Kamala Das (Ii)

A poetess or a theatre artiste, A dramatic persona? A Mira or a Radha, Who, who is she? A girl gone into hysterics, Abnormal or normal? A girl prostitute Playing with a doll or not Or a feminist in making, A painted lady, Dented and tainted? A feminist After divorcing her husband Or turning her husband Into a henpecked hubby, Calling him characterless, But she too is not less than? A Rajneeshite, She is a modern disciple Of the guru-shisya prem, Lawrentine and Freudian. Wearing a rudrakshamala, The modern lover She plays the role of a Rajneeshite disciple, Preaching 'Sambhoga to smadhi'. To be in the media limelight somehow Is the target of this socialite.
