Monster In-Law
A ship controlled by multiple captains, a home by an extra head
her presence makes it void of comfort with an unkempt bed.
Supposedly one family but the current of dividing lines is switched on
the liberty and freedom of every member, such fat **** sits upon.
A husband-son tussle as the wife and mother struggle on the beach
toiling and moiling with complications of hate for an attention within reach.
On love and trust, tension nurturing malice becomes the substituted language
unwilling to mix or blend like a combination of wine and cabbage.
Embraced loved-one from the other side who behaves like the devil’s colleague
monitoring eyes, sniffing nose, long hands and epileptic lips; that’s her league.
In every development, stands this strong opposing master
peace can’t stand b’cos the limbs of agitation runs faster.
Bringing the intrigues and adrenaline secreting drama of a telenovela live
to convert a wonderful paradise into a hub struggling to survive.
Every detail even ones passing through the holes of intimacy, she wants to know
little mistakes worth forgiving, her advice stimulates the wife to go.
The mercy of mama’s laps the man's head solely depend
forgetting his first priority of whom he should always defend.
Arguments run through the house fittings to give 24 hours of night
disappearance of this external commander once again restores the light.
