Manure To Cultivate The Crops Of Love! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Manure To Cultivate The Crops Of Love!



While the gossiping words
Of the women of my hometown
Work like manure to cultivate the crops
Of my love and lust;

My mother’s strict words controlling me
Acts like water to the crops, both helps me
In extending the so called disease,
Known as Love.
