Vigneshwara
Handsome is that handsome does we know.
Our pantheon teems with trillion shapes and forms.
But their schism credal has ever kept low
Their profile and too soon it faith deforms.
You have made the grade for a total change,
Netted tenets divisive in your
Trunk. Within your paunch's pregnant range,
No one can be a bigotted brewer
Of fissioning faiths; and you are for all minds.
Your glance spills short cuts to life's varied goals.
Your early circumambulation finds
You cutting out your brother soul and soles
In a trice and it was a walk-over.
Our obstacles for you are a pushover.
