कविता अपना जनम ख़ुद तय करती है / The poem Chooses Its Own Birth

Year ago I wrote an essay 'कविता अपना जनम ख़ुद तय करती है ' (The poem Chooses Its Own Birth) for an anthology of essays  "Living in Language" ed. Erica Hesketh(2024) published by Poetry Translation Centre London, launched in the Writers Centre Norwich this year.

I am thankful for this opportunity as I rarely write prose. It allowed me to write an outline of my own roots of poetry and the processes within. 
 

I thank  'Raagdelhi' https://raagdelhi.com/news/poem-decides for publishing the essay in the original text. Essay was translated from Hindi by Sarabjeet Garcha.
