Selfishness

Let me be selfish and discern the flaws in nature.
Let me put aside the lofty ideas and entertain the convention of
the common folks.
Let me hold everything in contempt.
Let every word emanating from this pen reveal  GOD's wrath and injustice.
I need to write.
This flow would  cease as soon as I 
wear the mantle of loftiness.
Let me disregard the sayings  of the great  philosophers and saints.
They donot waver.
They are insensible and fed by ABSOLUTE REALITY.
Let me get perverted.
Let me savour selfishness.
Let me go on writing..............
