Critically analyse the poem ‘Naked Truths.’

The title “Naked Truths” is a pointer; we are supposed to pause and think the suggestion it carries. In the present case, the title refers to happenings in the distant past as well as those the poet witnessed in his own lifetime. The past and the present are imagined as coexisting here in the form of what the poet calls truths. Truths are larger than happenings; they present for the advantage of the reader the life of a dalit. An important thing in this poem is the presence of deities, god-like figures guarding interests of the community. To the naked eye they are invisible, but they remain present to inspire and help the community when need arises. In the first stanza, there is a talk of “deities” whom poet has requested to be with him and “go with me.” More than the larger society of a whole region, the poet-persona belongs to a clan bound by the principle of language, culture and folklore. In the same breath, the poet associates himself with a bird that flies “away leaving the nest.” The bird helps the poet escape from the clutches of a cruel society—it did not provide to him strength and sustenance. That is why the poet wishes to fly away from his “nest.” 

One may call it a good beginning of the poem that aims to expose a number of bitter truths about the man-made agency called society. At this juncture, let us raise the question: Why does the poet have a sudden urge to leave the nest? My own feeling is that the rest of the poem, the thirty four line long verse, is ____ ________ ____ _______ _________ __________ _____ ____.
