Rm.Shanmugam Chettiar. - Live-in relationship

Live-in relationship is coming to stay.
Marital status is of redundancy.
Stress and strain stung by marriage will flee.
No widow, widower or divorcee.
Separation is without legal battles.
The afflictions of perversion lessen
Curiosity is resurrected;
Consensual sex is without prosecution.

Live-in relationship has come to stay.
Uneven couples will find their way hard.
Lured couples will find their way out.
Insecurities will set in within.
Identity crises will surface within.
Some beetles will miss petals to land on.
Some flowers will miss beetles to suck them.
The progeny will miss its ancestral home.

Marriage is a kind of reservation
By which seats of alliance is reserved,
But for which the might is the rule of game,
With weaklings denied their dues in mates.
Live-in relation is a matter of choice,
Where inconsistency is inherent.
Concern and care is not carried forward.
As old, the people will die worse than the beasts.
