The Instant Paramour Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

‘Shall I kiss you? ’, mustering strength,
He, my boyfriend’s friend, now mine too,
Asked me while we were travelling
In a taxi, one evening, from a show.

‘If you really wanted to kiss me
You should have tried it then
When we were in the theatre
And not now before the chauffeur.’

Saying thus, I managed the scene.
A guy will try his luck anywhere,
With any girl without ethics.
Any man is an instant paramour.
