The Fellows Of Turpitude, With No Generosity! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

The Fellows Of Turpitude, With No Generosity!



The fellows of turpitude, with no generosity,
shall not even shake their wet hands with
which they take food, unwilling to part with -

- even few food grains sticking to their hands,
unless the other persons who are wanting
clench their hands folded and break their jaws!
