The Northeast Label

Just for he or she knows English Or can attempt a few verses, Transceate or translate into, Just for that, call not one a poet Under the label of the northeast As poetry knows it no labels. Are they poets only now, Were there not before? Neglected, ignored northeast, Unexolored and unsearched Must not be sold in such a way. Assam is Assam let it be, So are Arunachal, Manipur, Tripura, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Mizoram, The lands and their cultures themselves Are the things of reckoning Rather than my trivial verses about.
