Mind Is A Monkey Poem by Somanathan Iyer

for No.2. There is a old story on state of mind under various influences. Monkey as such is naughty, it consumed liquor, added to that stung by a scorpion. we can imagine the melee. Like that we can see so many crimes committed because of liquor and hatred.

for No.3. A garland is beautiful to look and feel. But a monkey cannot see the beauty. the moment it goes to its hands it tears it apart using its hands and teeth. like that character is spoiled by greed and other vices.
