Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar Poems

Blacks in America
And the suppressed in India
Fought the oppressors
Not to get away from them
...

Acts of attrition promote charity.
The guilt built might demand charity.
Seeking God’s bliss might cause charity.
From the surplus one might do charity.
...

I went to the doctor and the God.
The disease was cured; I thanked the God.
I went to the lawyer and the God.
The case was lost and I cursed the lawyer.
...

For the brand, you pay.
For the advertisement
And canvassing, you pay.
For packing and warranty too.
...

The tiger chases the deer.
The tiger chases the tigress
The dear flees; the tigress eludes.
No hatred; only fear and shyness.
...

We exert our energy to do certain things
Against our interests and spirits
Just to show to the world our caliber
And feed our ego without fiscal gain.
...

Counts die; then water dries;
Erection falls; then passion struggles.
Lust still lives with lips dry.
Voyeur fills. Else a living corpse.
...

A king can stoop down to a maidservant.
The old one can bend down to a teenage girl.
Man is flexible and woman, stretchable.
...

Woman tolerates her husband
For her children and her placement
And from monogamous nature.
Man can go away seeking works
...

Life energy is analogous to zero.
Standing alone, both don’t manifest.
Life in matter and zero after integers
Get manifest and add value to them.
...
