I doubt whether any body ever said that poetry can be written
in a cirtain way only. At least I never said so. Hence that is not
the problem. The real problem, even if some people deny it, their
hatred towards the so called chando-baddha variety of poetry.

Or in other words, those who are eager to pour formaldehyde over
the old goods are seeing the problem else where where it never
existed.

But it is ok. You can hate certain qualities and quantities in the
world. No one says not. Bu the trouble starts when you wish others
see the world only the way you do.
