Every Dog Has Its Day

Yes, I was inurbane but not from family poor. Of innumerable malignant deeds you were the doer! You, urban man, on your knees you came with aim to flatter. I was no girl capricious though stood in line the next suitor! All charms you applied to have me towards you gravitate. In no time you grabbed all my wealth like water to dissipate! Perspicuous you were in making me, in face of others, the scapegoat. Many to alienate me; your mocking mistresses, family members who gloat! But you stupid and ungracious, you may not know this journey with you is transitory. “Every dog has its day.” I’ve found my true love and soon he will end my sob story! 12/09/16 - 10 lines Ten words Challenge by John Hamilton 1.
