Frederick: The hot-button issue engaging Goanet's cyberspace these days is that provocative piece of Goan manhood's pristine attire....... the Kashtti. This ultimate in informality equivalent of the West's jock, while bordering on risque semi-nudity, has received a lot of attention and invoked much discussion. Hence I'll proceed to give this topic a rhyming thrust to galvanize further words of wisdom on this amusing and piquant subject. A sartorial strip of pristine masculinity is the Kashtti The prim and proper prude could find primitively nasty Backed solidly by tradition it needs no ironing for its mag Its grandeur is hardly assessable fairly by its price tag Rightly viewing the wearer as a gentleman in a ball rag By consuetude well accepted socially, his jock's no gag In tintos, agoras and other haunts on the main drag Sporting his Adam's leaf gamely though tongues wag Of maintaining seminal dress code he can stoutly brag His prestige, Modesty, Decorum and Solemnity can't sag No indecent exposure charge'll land him in a Goan Gulag Given his personality from smile and posture doesn't lag And with coconut oil and comb he's groomed his shag In any fancy dress competition, first prize he could bag Outright beating suited dandies and taking all the swag Now consider the flexibility afforded by donning this rag His agility and ease would prevail up tree, river or crag to traipse his way around he'd be a lightning fast scrag And if he suffers a Xanthippe who constantly does nag Being on his nerves and appetite a mean harrowing drag To avoid his battle-ax spouse, swiftly sleek he can zigzag His string and sac outfit is deemed a second national flag Admiring lovelorn mannas behold in him a desirable stag and how his popularity soars when attracting many a fag
