Call Me a Madman!


“Call me a madman!” he cried—

“All of my oeuvre
is witness to myself: A Kalidas*
cutting a worm-eaten, societal branch, sitting
on the wrong end of it. You must have
guts to do that!

Kalidas
is not a myth, but a real rebel: a powerful metaphor
of rebellion
used as a powerful weapon
by conformists,
by hypocrites!

Call me a madman!
Because I think


not of the pain
I’ll incur to myself
but of the cure
I might be able
to bring for all.”
