Untenable

In ideas I am very mediocre 
My thoughts move around the trivial  things 
They allege and I search them out
  But I did not find anything except 
A piece of paper at the back of my door
On it nothing has been written 
Barely a few lines of an adventurous attempt 
On my tattered life experience 
I did not take that seriously, so, I forgot 
But the men who call themselves intellectuals 
Mind it and put it on their agenda 
At the end of the intense discussion 
 They all against me put a charge 
 I have had that audacity to rise 
And untie all the dragons of truth 
I am a very simple man with a simple mind 
Quickly I send them this sallow message 
As I really I do not know the words to refute 
How these few simple lines of mine 
Based on very common life becomes a poem 
And a person like me very ordinary become a poet !
