I am a dedicated troll,
Blessed 2 be followed by ‘Hindu Hriday Samrat’,
I am known as a ‘proud Hindu’, ‘Garvit Hindu’,
‘Namo Bhakt’, ‘Desh bhakt’,
I am a ‘yodha’, a keyboard warrior,
An online abuser and I always work in war mode,
I have 600000 Twitter followers,
I am the admin of 1000 WhatsApp groups too,
My weapons are debased language, sex-filled imagery,
Monstrous lies, doctored photographs and videos,
And my aim is to attack Gandhi and worship Godse,
With choicest lingoes, I mock and kill
The honour of columnists, women, minorities and Dalits,
Born to spread hate and armed to flood bile
I am the pillar of the muscular ethnic state,
None can stop me from spreading online venom
Even Twitter bosses have to touch my feet
If they, by accident, lock my account for a day
Such lofty power I wield over my digital army,
Never forget, I am a loyal, faithful troll
And blessed 2 be followed by the country’s God.
