Perpetually angry poetry. I've read just Jejuri as a part of an anthology of Indian English language poets of that era. Oh I think him wonderful; excellent imagery, to me he defined how (even via translations) Indians could write poetry in English. Not the rhyming bland fare of Sarojini Naidu, the neither -here-nor-there of Ezikiel, or the 'non' Indian verse of Moraes. He was as spare and as elegant as the best haikus sometimes. And as for crass, that's one of the reasons I liked him. I don't want to mess up your thread but I'd have quoted his entire poem, the one that begins: मै भाभीको बोला क्या भाईसाबके ड्यूटीपे मै आ जाऊ ?
