Indians have a serious problem.
They suffer from fits of preconceived notions!!!
I started writing poetry quite early, at the age of twelve or thirteen. So, it would be like, I would be getting introduced to somebody, with an added fact, that, I write good poetry.
He would look at me, raise his eyebrows, scan me from the tip of the highest strand of hair, to the end of the last nail, like, he just caught me, sleeping with his daughter!!! He would, then, give a wild grin, and remark, "You don't look like a writer!!"
Really??? I never knew they had a "writer look" too!!!
"You don't have a bearded face, or, those 'poetic' long, unruly strands of hair!!!"
What??? Poetry doesn't lie hidden in the bushy vegetation of your face, or your hair, that would be, more of a crow's nest, because, you simply didn't have even a comb, at home!!!
These guys, when they read a simple sentence, "The curtains were blue", fall philosophical.
"Hmmm...The writer wants to express the melancholy through the 'blueness' of the curtains..."
NO!!!
THE CURTAINS WERE FUCKING BLUE!!!
