Scratch Paper

Each has its own clean blank papers Others have with them the thickest Some only have few, but who cares? Even others got the finest Each one was given the same pen Each one with the same instructions “No definite time to begin Make a masterpiece of your own” Others are slow and too careful Maybe they don’t have a spare sheet. Others are ruthless and playful Because they've plenty on their seats Beggars made the most of their time. Proud of what came out of imagination And everyone was in the line With their artworks for submission Yet their piece was the only unaccepted Their hopes begun to tatter Despite of all it was still rejected And treated like a scratch paper BY ELC
