Main Article Content
Abstract
S.L. Peeran, a Judicial Member of Customs, Excise and Gold Control, Appellate Tribunal, Chennai, is a bilingual poet composing poems in English and Urdu. He has seven collections of poems to his credit. The poetry of S.L. Peeran is an outcome of his confrontation with the stark realities of contemporary society. He is uncommonly sympathetic and knowledgeable about man’s faults. He is dolorous at the rapid growing capitalism, imperialism, individualism, communalism, tyranny, agony, dissatisfaction, poverty, avarice, corruption, exploitation, violence, moral degeneration, selfishness and profanity. He is well conscious of the lethal and unhealthy situations around him. His poems are a call to invoke in dead veins of man- spiritual light, wisdom, peace, truth, happiness, glory, universal brotherhood, devotion, beauty and goodness and to revolt against darkness, foolishness, war, inhumanity, egoism, selfishness, superficiality, ugliness, indifference and jealousy.
