Tree Twines Vine Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Tree Twines Vine



Dew soft was Draupati.
Gun hard was Bhima.
In their consummation,
He felt in her
As in the claw of Garuda
Who scooped out Manthara.
Iron of Bhima melted
In the lava of Draupati.

(Manthara is the mountain which
god plucked to churn the ocean
to extract the ambrosia of immorality)
