Rise And Fall Of Novice! Poem by Ramesh T A

Is art for art' sake only and not for human life?
Learning divine art, can a lady kill art of life?
If it so happens, it's true a dog's tail can't be
Straightened as real nature can't be changed ever!

A seemingly modest lady will even kill one, if
Needed to satisfy one's carnal desire in life!
Men may ask, 'will this cat too drink milk...? '
But it will not only drink but also break pot!

One feeling pity of such a one will be pitied..!
Even if you wash and feed with good food, the
Stray dog will only rush to street to take shit!
This is way of life of many an ignorant vagabond!

Vagabonds' hunger to prosper never know quality
And will even kill art and men to soar to top
Not knowing that there's a steep slop that will lead
To the abyss once they reach peak and jump in joy!
