Power Of The Eyes Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Power Of The Eyes

Rating: 5.0


A circle, drawn by dots or broken lines
Forms in the retina a complete circle,
Unbroken, the gaps dropped.

A square, drawn by ankles in corners,
Gives you an image of complete square,
Unbroken, the gaps removed.

A woman, shown by face, neck and belly,
Is inferred as a woman revealing in full
The parts, clothes dropped.

Woman may be clothed.
But her body is x-rayed..
