Sanctify… Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar
Sanctify…
Indian women live in two worlds,
At a time or alternatively.
The world of erotica brought by the media.
The world of female virtue
Inculcated by the Manu’s culture.
Sex scandals surge as a result.
Each scandal has equal share
From the female partner.
The forbidden fruit tasted equally.
Sanctify the scandal, the only way.

Good for him to poeticize the forbidden fruit a female makes of herself. As some great virtuous power.
