Saved Me Before I Swoon! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Saved Me Before I Swoon!

Rating: 4.0


As if the metallic shield the elephant
wears that saves the people
while it goes wild and rut
during the sexual active period,

The beautiful breast-band of my lover
adorning the full formed breast
saved me before I swoon,
if I happened to see her
beauty without it.
