A Response To Readers

I don't use vulgar thoughts,
I don't use vulgar quotes,
I don't use vulgar names
'cos I don't want that transient fame.

Some of the thoughts that stain, stay
Thoughts that stay, eventually fade away.
Some won't fade, they stay and linger
Neither in a quick sneeze nor the snap of a finger.

I'm not a person with two fake names,
Use the other name when put to blame.
If you come after me for repayment,
My silence does not make you the claimant.

I know poetry is considered to be a fine art
but I don't know to use big words to sound smart.
I'm not wise enough to pen down on wisdom,
But some of their delusions are not a part of my system.

I write in a language that I barely speak,
Scribbling for gaiety is all that I seek,
Sometimes its pointless when you try to make me worthless
'Cos that doesn't automatically make you worthwhile.

Oh yes, I do respect constructive criticisms,
Not the one that spreads hatred and cold cynicism.
But if useless fights are a part of your custom,
I don't mind as long as I have that 'block' button.

I don't care if you like what I write
'Cos all I do is write what I like.
You cant blame me for my distinctive choice,
'Cos its the conviction of my inner voice.
