Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar Poems

The new one replaces
The one still vibrant
With its variety
And not for its quality.
...

If someone does some service to the God
It must not be for publicity,
Or with any ulterior motives
Or to recruit followers to ride.
...

The head that uses his influence
To promote his body is a leader.
The head that uses the influence
Of the body for himself is cancer.
...

A swan was chosen as Miss Water Bird.
Herons and cranes learnt to see charm in her.
However, ducks could not find any charm.
The worldwide beauty contest is meaningless.
...

Be it any part on woman’s body;
It’s an erroneous zone in man’s touch.
Man’s erroneous zone is confined only
On his private part in woman’s handling.
...

Live-in relationship
Is two seeds in a pod,
With enough comfort zone.
...

Being hot, the pan scorched my finger
It is my fault to touch it when it’s hot
It is not that I should abandon it
Don’t abandone men for their outbursts
...

No one is suffering from disease.
No one is starving for food or clothes.
No accidental death; no brutal death.
Men wish but not the God. Whose’s good?
...

Alertness is due to anxiety
Anxiety is due to fear complex
Adrenals are overactive
Aftereffects are destructive
...

Meetings to chatting, chatting to friendship
And friendship to intimacy will grow love
Between two souls and would halt there itself
Onlookers infer adultery, and gossip
...
