Sometimes
I'm bewildered, perplexed
when I take a disguise
I take the makeup
and the beautifying dress up
o how wonderful smart look I'm!
I take all these concealing outfits
to move, to walk with others
to be the elite social
to win the throne of the aristocratic dignity,
to enjoy the crown of so-called wise title
Sometimes
I'm confused about me
when I find all my costumes tie up me
with the boastful fallacious camouflage!
and compel me to take pseudonym!
I forget that-
"The Truth can live naked comfortably
without dressing up, making up or taking disguise the truth lives harmlessly
but The Lie never can live naked
and it needs always splendid dressing up with alias
to show so-called patrician or upper class status! "

Yes, after 'Please Leave This Squabble, it is clear where your reference is. PH is the Site for Poetry. What is the compulsion for allowing non-poetic sentiments under the poetry columns? Why even adverts are allowed? Is it pursuing volume only, not quality, and promote the cause of poems and poets?
Thank You Sir for your liberal comment. Yes, the non-poetic sentiments, some poet self adverts I think only for pursuing volume, points, rank! ! ! !
