Poetic Justice

Story poem

 

Poetic justice

 

She had prepared a special dish

 a bowl of marinated fish.

 And left it for me with a note

This is an exact direct quote.

 

“ I do hope you enjoy your meal

 it’s meant to show you how I feel.

I did not find it to my taste

 but would not let it go to waste

 

 

I fed it to her favourite cat

 I’m very glad now I did that.

 The cat wolfed it all down greedily

 and then expired speedily.

 

Her wicked plan had gone awry

 Her intention was that I should die

She loved that cat much more than me

 I should have died unpleasantly

 

Now she no longer lives with me

she’s in the penitentiary.

She will be there for quite some time.

Attempted murder is a crime.

 

I sued and obtained a divorce

.I got the property of course,

the house and everything she owned

Such wickedness can’t be condoned.

 

I’m free not only that but rich.

 She was a spoilt but wealthy b***h.

Her plan backfired drastically

 For which I give thanks gratefully

 

I live alone quite happily

The other guys all envy me

they have to pay alimony

 but I got rid of her scott free.
