Edward Ibeh Poet Light Verse

Notes About The Poem

A Different Kind of Cupid

He's always up there 
On the crescent moon 
Sleeping and snoring loudly
Oh, this "Cupid" couldn't be more different 
He's always too groggy from sleep
To ever shoot his arrow straight 
Ask his unfortunate victims
Those still alive anyway 
All of them, injured... still lovelorn 
Some are still hospitalized
He's different from the rest alright.
You'll spot him sleeping on the crescent moon 
Wake him at your peril 
He hates being bothered. Leave him alone! 
He uses his visitors as target practice 
He just shoots them 
In the groin and laughs 
As they double over 
Screaming in pain, or dead
