O, Selfish poetess!
show me no face
make no chase
I shall erase your memory right now

You were insincere
with no self-honour
only wild chase for fame
and desperate bid to claim

the stars also twinkled
in the night and inked with
a brief smile and approval
I felt so much happiness as an individual

what was so special about?
I never ventured out
to know more
now i feel sore

Neither I shall call
nor shall fall
in the treacherous game
I need no more fame

poetry to me is no profession
it is sheer madness or obsession
I use it as a tool for human relation
And use it as medium for communication
