Kumbakarnawasbeaten Poem by Indira Renganathan
Kumbakarnawasbeaten
You set the alarm to
Your favourable time
Your clock is loyal
To snoozing
As much as you are
Kumbakarna was beaten
Ramayana says
Sun is the only
Disciplined son of
God
Yet, Kumbakarna
When woke fought
For his brother
He stored
His strength in sleep
Just to die wakened
You are neither
Kumbakarna nor the sun
Humans have belated thoughts
On missed life
Some people can sleep for any length of time. They never know when the sun comes overhead. If they they set an alarm, even when it strikes, they never know or refuse to wake even if they know. Such people can be rightly addressed as Kumbakarnas...! Interesting write.

A very amusing poem. Kumbakarna is well known for his appetite and sleep. It is not surprising that many have turned into Kumbakarnas during this pandemic period. Really enjoyed reading this poem, dear Indira Madam....... :) 10
