An Ignorant And Insensible Man! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

An Ignorant And Insensible Man!



To be a relative to an illiterate
and be in close association with him,

To beat the strong minded, disciplined,
chaste and virtuous wife with a stick,
or by any other means torturing,

To entertain mean mentality
and undisciplined fellows as
friends inside your house

are the three foolish misfortune deeds
which are detrimental for an ignorant
and insensible man!
