Did I Plagiarize?

Did I plagiarize?
NO, never in my life will I
It's a great insult

My integrity
Won't allow me to do it
For any reason

I don't need to use
And copy works of others
It's not worth the time

Why should I rely
On other people's writing
When I can do it

Fame is meaningless
When it is gain through stealing
Why not work for it

Author's Note

The hot issue on plagiarism inspired this write. If anyone copied my work I am not aware of it as I don't read everyone's poems in this site. But I do know that some of my poems from other sites have been used for other purposes with due credit to me as they were written under my real name. Besides, this issue resonates with me as I was once accused of plagiarism in this site. That person thought that I copied somebody's work. Maybe she's unaware that there is a poetry form called Etheree which I had used in other site before I came to DUP.
