It takes time to erase the tawdriness from the stories
Perceive each anecdotal piece from many other angles
Sometimes, one has to work beyond time and even forgetting about it
To make the stories perceptive for them to appeal to the senses
Coarse edges smoothen from the constant friction with life
There are certain advantages of taking a stand over the wilful coercions
Before constructing the vile narratives and infiltrating reader’s mind
With an undesirable intensity that triggers ceaseless concussions
