When I was in school then I used to have some,
But school is gone, so is college and now I have none.

I never had many,
I feel like an alien,
Everywhere, anywhere I go,
I am boycotted by all for some unknown reason,
So I don't have any.

Some cite my attitude being the reason,
Some have differences with my preferences,
Others are too busy for this poet-singer,
The world is friendly only to money.
And now...

For me,
It has also been impossible to get my book published,
Because my parents turned down my request to hire a literary agent,
Publishing companies in India are so hostile and unfriendly that they won't publish my work without the security fee which they receive indirectly through a literary agent in India.

It's as good as self-publishing.

The Indian publishing industry is fake and full of corrupt people.

I've published my story as an eBook on Amazon's Kindle eStore which has been turned into a reality inspired fiction. If someone would like to buy my poetic story, then they may logon to the Amazon Kindle web page: http://www.amazon.com/dp/aw/B00MYY0DMA/
