EDITORIAL STATEMENT:
PROSOPISIA is an international journal of poetry and crative writing.
Prosopis, from which the name of the Journal is derived, is the State-tree of Rajasthan and has a mushroom growth on the foothills of the Aravali Ranges. The tree has succeeded in withstanding the odds by requiring considerable drought hardiness. It is above all, a legume and it improves soil fertility. There is a popular saying in Rajasthan that death will not visit a man even at the time of a famine, if he has a Prosopis, a goat and a camel, since the three together would sustain him under the most trying conditions.
(..)
In the midst of a de-culturalised world when old values and samskaras are fast being wiped away, the only sustaining force can be found in poetic creativity which can serve as a soothing shade to rest under for a number of human lives lost in the burning, burning vastness illimitable !
