Upgraded, By: Snigdha Agrawal

Upgraded, By: Snigdha Agrawal

That day when you said
with a scowl
I looked bedraggled
that I had let myself go
I made up my mind
to get my act together
give me a complete makeover
such that you would
find nothing to say
at my upgraded self
equipped with a sharper intellect to put you in place
I won
you lost
in the game of who
is better than thou

albeit still looking
bedraggled
