Worst of the worst writers, that’s me
as no one even bothers to read
Whatever I post on S and C
What kind of writing really leads?
As I myself have failed to comprehend
Why should anyone care, if my heart bleeds
On these, I have tried my hands
Fifty-fivers, lunes and/or cinquains
Not a single trace, nowhere they stand
Not for me long-winded explanations
Nor produced chef-d'oeuvre of literary kind
Neither did any kind of impersonations
Social issues are mostly in my mind
Something compels me to pen those
How can I ignore and put those behind
Someone shed light, what prose
or poetry do I write? To go with flow
I never tow the line. In compose
mode, whose trumpet do I blow?
Getting across my thoughts is my goal
Does use of difficult words make one glow?
Simplistic writing I thought, touched the soul.
As usual I was wrong assuming it all
Nutcase that I am, never saw loopholes
I enumerated my weak points, now ready to fall
After taking home the worst writer’s crown,
I will paint the town red and have a ball!
