You see insanity on him while I call him crazy
You think his psyches is penetrated but he dives into the inward being
He isn’t neurotic, he is simply impossible to miss.
The persona in the poem LUNATIC begins to call himself insane in the absolute 1st verse of the poem and invokes the readers for his assertion. Such self-declaration might be deliberated to unfold the prevalent condition of the society without shaking their negativity.
The persona in the subsequent verse gives defense of lunacy. It is done through peculiar and unusual behavior in the sense by all accounts inverse of what a typical individual may insight. He talks about visualizing sound while hearing the visible and is actually the first savagery statements towards the existing traits of the society. That is to say those individuals with specific obligations are, indeed, not doing their guaranteed works and rather captivating in another field where they lack with their professionalism. Maniac or not now you decide but for me he can be viewed as the persona being amazingly innovative and without a doubt is extraordinary and baffling.
Also, in the third refrain, advocation of lunacy is given through correlation of a normal person introducing the distinctions next to each other. The maniac persona praises the privileges of similar persona and presents itself as off-base by and by. Looking at having the intuition contrasted with five organs of others, about the working with consciousness as sixth one instead of mind and encapsulating the rose for inside worthwhile every other person takes it for face esteem makes us reveal about the persona being deeply intellectual rather than a lunatic.
In the fourth stanza, many readers say that the persona attempt to legitimize the lunacy from some recounted insight and how he is misjudged over his activities but this is the point where I feel the persona getting immersed in the profundity of his notions and passes on his intellectual mentality about viewing good prospects over the worst ones and again good thing over the best ones. It is also demonstrated that the persona being entitled with distraught for being emotional over the normal cycle of individuals entering to the maturing time frame while for same reason, Gautam Buddha was renowned to be called “Light of Asia” and in fact, is the bitter truth of the society being extremely biased in decision making processes and supporting the untruth reality. Once again, it delivered the chance of persona not being lunatic but extremely, criticizing the society in strategic way.
The fifth and sixth stanza is all about the understanding of the persona and on the off chance that you still think he is maniac, you may follow a considerable lot of the impediments and contentions in his truisms yet for me, his character is being reinforced to an ever increasing extent and his level of contemplating about the society is thoroughly overwhelming.
At the end of the poem, we can see the persona introducing the disappointment and making reactions to the elements in our society through the use of extremely revolutionary remarks and significance of everything inside the poem begins to become crystal-clear causing the incongruity to those who thought he was lunatic in the previous verse and appeared to have been for the depiction of the genuine picture of existing society for the last time in a very noticeable way.
Throughout the poem, we can see the persona being astute in every sense to depict the human instinct and society in a very ironical way and my assertion reach to the point of not calling the persona as a lunatic but he, trying to shake all the negative pictures of the human and society without letting them know about it, seems to have been so intriguing strides to uncover the society.
