How To Define! Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

How to define?
Monday,6th Dec 2021
How do I define myself?
simple waste or treasure on shelf!
surrounded by liars
and hate suppliers
Not that I am above!
but behave
as if I am rare species,
with full of decency
Do I not get tempted?
or never attempted
at ill-gotten money
for living leisurely
have I not been duped?
or eloped with the love
ditched it and deserted
I assert it and confess
Yet, I live with pride
and decide
it as a lesser degree of evils
to feel with no guilt
