A New Etheree Poem Any Theme Poetry Contest
Tania Kitchin


I
Dated
A sweet man
We fell in love
To a drummers beat
All was fine and dandy
Except his love for Brandy
His secret lover tore us up
He loved the liquor, hops, and spirits
And I'd fight her off and send him packing

Lines 7,9 and 10 are play on words in case if anyone is noticing. The poem can be read both ways with the other way full of innuendo.
