A crisis is the source of poetry: Jayanta Mahapatra

Excerpts:
"Today I dream. So I sit down to write. I feel the confusing waves of time's pain so much that at times I would like to use time as an avenging god in my poem. At other moments, or in between poems, time is just a frail ghost of an enemy standing in my path, and I sense I could go through it, unscathed. And as I advance, both in my poetry and in my years, I feel I am perhaps driving the victim of time ahead of me."
