YSR's Poem On Culture And Couples From The Book ODE TO AN EARTHWORM

LOVE AND SCARE

The original sin of the first couple
Haunts the learned men
Makes them watchmen of all couples

Billions of couples unaware of the sin
With their aroma, honey flowing in sweat
Make the Mother Earth bloom in heat

Blooming flowers anger watchmen
Their inner darkness comes to light
Pluck the flowers and crush with might

Years pass by, flowers turn to dust
Some seeds fall and rain drops too
Flowers bloom, watchmen are scared.
