Of A Cup Of Intolerant Sauce… Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Of A Cup Of Intolerant Sauce…



Look at the lady sitting
At the table on the right
See! How much she is adding!
Oh! What a horrible sight!

Servings, yes; to her liking
So what? That’s to her taste
Better be bent on gulping
Those left there in your plate!

She doesn’t add horn or thorn
To your cup of silly woes
To own soup own joy alone,
Adds pepper and chilly sauce!

(In support of one female poet friend this site)

Your poem gives a nasty taste in the mouth initially but goes on to say how she does no harm to others but minds her own business and then finally the positivity behind the entire gamut of what you feel - it is her way of 'serving' herself - clever poet Kesav! ! !

Poets are ‘Qualified-Clarified-Narcissist [QCN]’… Narcissist to vibe up their mind’s color…and that diffuses peruses effuses into million hearts… so why Poets are QCN Thanks Sir…10+ from heart Ms. Nivedita UK PS I'm envious of that Lady... and feel happy of your Lady Luck...lol
