MUSAFIR NAMA VI

Musafir Nama VI is the tenth anthropology of poems coming from the prolific pen of Ajay Kumar Singh Musafir. They deal with the whole gamut of human existence and the varied experience called life. Musafirs poetry is essentially didactic the treatment being philosophical in nature. He prefers the rhyming scheme for the opportunities it provides by limiting the scope of expression thereby providing a challenge to the poet to hone his craft and provide for meaningful poetry within the limits set by verse. There is a certain randomness to the chain of poems which have been printed in the order of the date of composition as the Musafir Nama series is essentially a collection of the poets thought on a variety of different colours that is life. His poetry reflects the liberalism he imbibed in reaction to during the heyday of aggressive socialism which claimed for themselves the culmination of the intellectual efforts of the entire humanity. The sheer arrogance of the left left a bad aftertaste and a suspicion that clothed in bombastic subterfuge there hid within a false philosophy which was a compromise between desire and honest academics. His poetry thus reflects the uncertainties of human existence and the beauty and grace that it engenders.
