Once you are used to it
even the sorrow
that visits you
sometimes, in dreams,
Answer- Context - These lines are taken from the poem "Habit" written by F.M.Shinde. He has published thus far 24 collections of his poetry, three compilations of his literary critiques, a collection of his one-act plays, a translation of a book, and a collection of his humorous essays. He was born in a small village called Rupur in Kalamnuri Taluka of the Hingoli district of Maharashtra.
Explanation- A famous open written by F.M Shinde tells about the pain and suffering in lives of Dalits. It also tells about habit that develops when you used to one thing.
This poem is built on the adage “habits die hard”. The poet has tried to explain in this simple poem how we end up growing certain habits, some bad and some good. And then the poet has used beautiful comparisons to explain the theme. A weed that grows thick and fast and then is difficult to pullout is the way the poet has compared to how habits can quickly set in and once they keep you in their “vice-like grip”, it is difficult to get out of it. The poet then extols the way good habits take time to grow but stay all through our lives.
The moral of the poem is to stay alert and pluck away bad habits before they grow like you will do with weeds and patronize good habits.
