Dear Albert, If you're going to post such terrible, indulgent, pretentious, adolescent and sophomoric poems by the likes of Shekhar Kapur, then why not also post the poetic works of Abdul Kalam, Atal Behari Vajpayee and any other famous, powerful people we can think of? I hear that Tabu and Amitabh B also write poems-- can we afford to ignore them? After all, Amitabh's dad was a brilliant poet, so he must be, too. And after all, if they are good at one thing, they must surely be good at absolutely everything. Ram Gopal Verma has surely penned a strophe or two, Laloo Yadav certainly does, and I'm quite certain -- I have a strong feeling about this-- that Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Ketan Mehta, Mahesh Bhatt, Karisma Kapoor, Manisha Koirala, Shah Rukh Khan and Robert De Niro have all tried their hand at a haiku or two. Why not track them down?
