Contemporary Vibes around the World
By M.A.
Rathore
English poets who have
been constantly writing to their best of talents and creative forces, keeping
in mind that we can change the world through poetry and the feelings for the
development of societal values and issues go side by side in the same manner throughout
the world. Poets are the real legislature of society. They not only think for
the betterment of society but also warn the people with their satire and
feelings that occur at the time of their spontaneous outbursts of emotions.
Poetry that survives in time has something to say about the human condition. We
have tried to include all the poets who have a vast knowledge of the issues
those human beings suffer from, grasp over poetry, and are celebrated in the
contemporary scene.

typical Hinduism. Philosophically he was a humble follower of Vedanta,
politically a communist with great sympathy for all humanity with no difference
of cast and creed. He was so loving and caring that no one would like to be
deprived of him. Jai Krishna was his favorite one and he shaped his life more
than anyone else. He has always been a good student, well-cultured and
well-disciplined. His teachers predicted him as an IAS officer in the future
but as his grandfather concluded going through his horoscope that he must be a
writer and poet, the life of Jai Krishna led him the same way. As a poet, Mr.
Jai Krishna has a versatile character. In the postmodern trend of poetry, he
occupies both places: in the self and out of the self. He prefers reflecting
the status of the mind to philosophical findings. Poetry is not philosophy but
philosophical criticism of life, he thinks. He supports the freedom of self
from all the boundaries of religious, philosophical, and socio-apolitical
thoughts. Poetry is human and it must be original. No trend should overpower
its human aspect, He states it affirmed. He lives with his working wife and a
ten-year-old daughter in the small town of Padrauna, district- Kushinagar (UP).
