Jack of All

Jack of All I have been a horse of my wife, always she directs me, as a pub boy Come here, go there, this should be done, now, that can be done later awhile In returning evening, don’t forget to bring, I have listed all in your pocket within I needed some rupees for shopping, please offer me this month all money I remember, a saying of my elder, to rear and cure of wife is hard not to crack You should forget all, and should sell, your wish and freedom in hands of lady joy She will encroach you, as invader from all side, no escape you will find only surrender May be, I wrote these lines daring for you gentleman, other being shameful in the past hid by A request, now to you all, please don’t let this irony before her divulging She will turn into fire, and will start to singe me, from within Many ways and times, I have lost my winnings from her She blows all the time, and name me a great looser Her start of supremacy, over me, after marriage I believed, she is my cranny She thinks self, she is bolder than me, in any case and, in all matter is funny Then plunges me in boiling water, all day screaming, baffling She is clever enough, to spell loveful matter, differently gruelling me And, presents me heavy boulder, to lift it, slowly, slowly A mistake, I did, when I agreed, to be tied with her blindly The chain became so irresistible that, my hair started, to turn fibre She spends her days, depending upon me, always, higher than tallest tower. (For smart wives).
