Live Your Life. Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Happiness in focus,
If it means dumping your spouse
To attain it, so be it.

Pleasure in vision,
If it means dumping monogamy
To attain it, so be it.

Carnal desire tempting,
If a woman steals her friend’s husband,
Be it a truth not probed.

Variety in demand,
If a man cheats his friend of his wife,
Be it a truth not deducted.

A dumped one is not
An unfortunate lot in that
Another suitor would come.

Be the dumping decent,
Both splitting with heads high
So that they fetch suitable pairs.
