A Homeless Bride-W

I shall daily visit the beauty parlor And make myself beautiful for you. I shall never clean the house So that my skin is not tarred. I shall ever watch my figure, Eating calorie less foods and drinks. I shall stay home all day And will never be stay at home mom But will go for Disco at night. I shall not take drugs But a drink or two in limits. I shall awake late in the morning So that you are not disturbed. I shall adorn the house to earn Adjectives from the neighbours. I shall buy the furniture to invent Nouns to be told to the visitors. Our house will be all pronouns But will never admit verbs as They shake the very foundation. *** I wrote this poem much earlier noticing a young married woman of a modest family adopting the modern living going astray from the household chores *** Based on a real person. The poem was posted on 1/16/2007 ======================== Dr. Ram Mehta Tenth place win in: Contest: Any Twisted Poem sponsored by Destroyer A Poet
