Even though one may not believe in God, one may experience such unease as heaven--given. Isn't it strange?

Recently, due to my writerly sensitivity, I too experienced a tremulous unease which you describe so aptly as 'rumbling and tumbling.' I am tempted to call it divine unease.

Though the last verses seem to spread out an arrogance, they do not.It's not a personal matter of a single writer boasts over his own achievements.The writer here, the poet, puts down these verses to defend all writers in the world.She speaks on their sake.Writers have to thank her.

A writer simply has to write- -words are writers' breath of air. We write the words and sends them out to dance on the stage and can only hope they resonate with the audience. Good review or bad, we go back to our drawing boards and try again because Shakespeare and Poe and Whitman are in our hearts and urge us to pour our soul into our works. A very good poem here, Jasbir

Yes, writers know their value.They write because they enjoy writing.Their words are their power, their strength and their best rewards that have lasting value.Like Rajnis Manga said, this quality is not arrogance, but self confidence of a writer.A writer does not wait for outside approval.He draws his strength from his own self.

Because I am a writer. I know myself and my worth much better. One day these people and I will all be gone into thin air. But my words will stay and echo through the whole universe. Yes Ma'am. Your words will be echoing through the thin air and Ether as well not only afterwards, but also now for years to come.. Thanks for this lovely poem.10++ for it. Subhas

There is no arrogance here. It is the feeling of confidence, self-control and a writer's uprightness that stands him or her in good stance even in the face of challenges and adversities. Thank you so much, Jasbir ji, for this great piece of poetry. Because I am a writer / I thrive on adversity /...words....come out as pearls on paper...
