 The Hindu : Confessional poetry
Where Parallel Lines Meet, Tabish Khair, published in Viking by Penguin Books India, 2000, p.
A more intimate confessional poem is, "Amma" that dramatises the homestead and physical decay: "Slowly you shuffle examining each new tear in the curtains/which will have to be mended when the first monsoon rain/provides a respite from the sun, curtails the need for shade".
Such confessional writing offers a unique self- fulfilment and a sort of psychological liberation from the pressures that seek expression; which Khair does by miniaturising each moment of experience.

 Poetry Daily Prose Feature: Conversation with Peter Johnson
The journal's long run and considerable accomplishment would help to integrate prose poetry into the literary landscape, though Johnson admits, "I only planned to do one issue, so calling it Volume One was really a private joke." It seems the joke was on him because the journal lasted nine years.
Mostly I was annoyed by the lack of discipline in the prose of the same poets who would bring much higher standards to their verse poetry.
Originally, I wanted my poetry to echo the metrical schemes and elevated subjects of those Latin and Greek writers I had translated in high school and college, but the results were always strained, inauthentic.

Poetry's always been heavily subsidized, of course, whether by king, arts board, or private patron; we seem to be looking at the evolution of a new, democratized system of patronage.
