A Unique Parting Gift
Gave my dear Ex a parting gift
A lovely comfortable chair
But I'm really not allowed to turn it on
It's a felony in this land so fair!
I'm not to blame if her latest hubby
Made a very big mistake
And lit her up like a Christmas Tree
Smelling like an overdone steak
As he watched his lover bake away
He sported this evil grin
It seemed that things weren't all that great
With my dear sweet Ex and him
So on her epitaph was written this
“I loved receiving gifts”
But this one was really too hot to handle
Sure gave her ending a twist!
