I have a purple pimple on my left cheek. And a pink one on my right.

I am golden brown in colour. I wasn’t born this way, but twenty-two summers have done its trick.

I can’t elicit a planter-reflex, don’t understand a pleural rub, can't palpate spleens and dick-heads.

I am a fucking ugly retard.

And I don’t want condolences when I'll end this all.

There seem to be quite a few Medical References in your poems, you may be a doctor ...

This is interesting in the sense that, it starts with self loathing and then ends up by showing attitude, A different take on rant based poetry ...

"showing attitude"..do i???

i am in med school...docs are far less frustrated.

Well, I didn't say that it is you who is being depicted in the poem (that is how I felt) ... so you are not showing attitude ... it is the character in the poem, which is putting forward a rebellious front ...

when did I say that docs are frustrated ?! :D why should you be when you have to "learn" so much :-)

@som: well, I don't think that the 'character' even is showing any attitude. It was written, well, kind of matter-of-factly.

@ipsita: not all, but if u can end a part of this, that'll surely be celebrated. :-D
