They thought I was a writer
They thought I was a poet
But then they found out
I couldn’t tell a song from a sonnet
They thought I was an artist
They thought I could paint
But then they found out
Neither to a mural nor miniature was I acquaint
They thought I played cricket
They thought I was a spinner
But then they found out
The team in which I played was never a winner
Finally they said, “You’re an engineer”
When they gazed upon the reflection, that
I am the master of the none
I am the captain of the zilch
P.S. Apologies to William Ernest Henley. Please don’t haunt me.
LOL you can’t say you’re not a poet even if you can’t differentiate 😀

Nice one although I don’t think William would agree for why would he have this to say :
Thou shant mock poetry
Thou shant utter any another word
An utter fool be ye to even attempt to reach Shakespeare and me
Woe be unto ye to write thy so called poem and gain stars for it

Ah, Kohinoor. The last time I saw her I couldn’t appreciate her beauty. That’s probably because she wanted to rip me to shreds.
That’s my neighbour’s dog, in case you are wondering.
