who was such a great poet himself? And later, Bharatiyar had his own dasan, the poet Subburathinam, who took

O, the sorrow of us all,
to wander the earth in a shell.
And looking to the heavens,

and that distance is still great.
Though on the same shore we now sit,
in temporal quietude to wait.
The moon is our bright witness;
it will lead us to the gate. — Craig Froman
