A Sonnet On Creative Intelligence

By Debashish Chattopadhyay

You think of the 'noise-cancellation' feature

Only in your 'ear-phone box'

What about the noises of subconscious nature?

Can't think out of the box!

Prufrock can become modern Hamlet

Can 'Shantih' replace 'the waste land'?

Thousands questions were asked to eternal Prophet

To discover the essence of the inner wizard-land.

The creative intelligence operating from within

Your eyes are open so you are blind!

And you are seeking Him madly

In the competitive intellectual society!

The frame-house glitters, 'Bible' is in Belinda's toilet

'Home 'suffers in darkness, we are still naked!
