Snatching is deadly.

In the demise of your wife

Or in the elopement of your wife,

The result is same: you lose her.

Should she die, you lose her only.

Should she flee, you lose yourself:

your ego, your nerve and soul-

a matter of shame in out of form.

You can miss, can you get plundered?

The humiliation is graver than the loss.

A grudge for revenge stays.
