Favor Done To The Mean Minded Persons! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan

Favor Done To The Mean Minded Persons!

Rating: 1.5


As if the country physician who treated
the poisoned tiger with stripes for its disease
had become the food for the same tiger,

a favor done to the mean minded persons
who don't have the manners and thankfulness
is equal to dropping the mud pot over the rock!
(Or)
is equal to hitting of the ship in the ocean to the rock!

தீயோர்க்கு உதவுதல் கேடு தரும்

கல்லின்மே லிட்ட கலம்.15 - மூதுரை
