I Started a Joke Like This
I started an exact joke like this,
I placed a trap at her satin door;
She slept with my elder son,
and snored like a licentious whore.
I was not sure about the plan,
But laughed in a hearty flow;
They were cursed to get crammed
In throes of muggy afterglow.
The fire I lit an eon ago
May burn the house to even the score;
But as a pampered child of God
I must keep my toe in the door.
