In honest simple verse

OVI: an ancient Indian form of narrative poetry consisting of four-line stanzas with the first three lines rhyming and having eight syllables each. The fourth line does not rhyme and contains less than eight syllables.

Dnyaneshwaar (1275-1296) was the first to use ovi in literature. (Illustration)

Pray for recovery

Salman Rushdie, writer of tale
Got stabbed yesterday in assail
On stage, before he could prevail
- Freedom of speech attacked

A fatwa on his head was set
Now he lies in hospital bed
Maimed for life, luckily not dead
- Pray for recovery
