How The Great Men Ruined Me Poem by Shakuntala Sharma
How The Great Men Ruined Me
Panini cheated me
He said, ' heart is neuter'
So I let it wander.
Lost to a woman it refusedto return
Ah, 'it' must be a 'he'
Alas, Panini cheated me.
Bhartrhari cost me my job
He said, ' never entertain fools'
So I didn't laugh at the jokes of my boss
And I was fired.
Alas, Bhartrhari cost me my job
Jesus let me down
He said, ' love thy neighbour'
I tried
Her husband bashed me up
Alas, Jesus let me down
Gandhi ruined my llife
He said, never tell a lie'
So I spoke the truth to my wife
She deserted me for good
Alas, Gandhi ruined my life

a beauty! ...just today i was thinking...I am I...why do I need to know and agree with what the great philosophers have said...can't I be the sole inventor and owner of my thoughts?
you have given great description what not do............. thank you for yur kind bold writing .....................
hahaha...that was an entertainer in a man's perpective
wonderful theme yet most fascinating, yet don`t follow others when ruined and cheated, follow your own consciousness, as every bit of work needs its own quota of doing in its own way seemingly specific, formula e never works at all level, smile, well penned,10+++, thanks for sharing
