You love your poetry
much more than you love me
the cadence of each rhyme
a convoluted crime!!!
Each "form" a great delight
but I'm kept out of sight
You have no thought for me
But love your poetry
You write with passion, soul
to charm the throng, your goal
the syllables so.... sweet
are like a tasty treat
With sugar laden line
you write of thoughts sublime
But this is plain to see
You love your poetry...
Then take it now to bed
Make sure your rhyme you wed
Make love to it at night
I'll keep just out of sight
the rhythm will not please
no sexy "form" to tease
the letter curves won't fill
your finger's need to thrill
the words won't rock desire
nor will you taste the fire
of senses in a spin
though top prize you may win
you'll lie alone in bed
no bosom for your head
Though you love poetry
It can't compare to ME!!!

A person can be jealous about anything his/her loved one is passionate about, be it music, sports, photography, or....poetry. I got a kick out of writing this one! :) It's the revenge of the one jilted by that obsessive passion of the loved one....
