Unstable Beauty Poem by Rajendran Muthiah

Unstable Beauty

Rating: 5.0


.
With a weary, hunch back and shivering head,
You walked with a stick and fell down dead.
Men of loose morals doted on you with lust.
Once your angelic mom moved the young hearts!

I am not familiar with the original work but the translation done by you is exquisitely beautiful and conveys the message perfectly well. This shows the condition of women in our society though, we claim to be civilised and educated. Thanks for sharing.
