CONSUMED BY FIRE 2024
The day you left, a shadow fell,
No word, no truth, just prison's hell.
She claimed your life, a cruel decree,
"Power of attorney," for all to see.
While slumber held, she crept unseen,
Your room a tomb, a plundered scene.
A stolen key, a silent thief,
My hidden goods, a bitter grief.
"Thief!" you cried, a twisted blame,
As she, the vulture, fueled the flame.
The Malibu, a fiery plight,
The Jeep, your gift, vanished in the night.
Stolen again, a burning fate,
My anger grew, a bitter hate.
She took my love, a cruel deceit,
Revenge ignited, a burning heat.
The Hummer blazed, a fiery plea,
A rat, a gift, for all to see.
Her terror born, a chilling sound,
A taste of justice, on sacred ground.
