Voicing a dalit*



Get out of here you idiot
Before you think yourself as poet.

You need a whacking praise you duffer
an egotist terrorist, a bluffer
pretence is greasing out of your face
good words hide your jealousy and gracelessness
some letters here and there cleverly put
doesn’t make a poem you intellectual brute.
you suck licking on your words and your lines
You pelt your judgement stone at others
from your glasshouse you traitor
A delinquent gatecrasher, a rascal you are
​​​​​​​I know your vice!!!!

Just get out of here you brainy prophet
Before you dare to call yourself a poet.


Dalit* (in the traditional Indian caste system) a member of the lowest caste. wikipedia
