Domestic Violence
You are better a divorcee, alive
Than a loyal wife that could not survive
Beating upon beating, arguments thrive.
Over some things, strategic jokes deprive
Of peace, trust issues make loyal days strive.
To cope of what such abuses derive-
How violence subsequently overdrive
Pains more enough than body could revive.
Easily crying for cooling death's drive!
