Jealousy

Jealously is commonly tied
To a monster that’s green-eyed.
How are they related?
Can the words be restated?
Jealously more accurately defined,
As a person with insecure mind.

I agree. Once was in a relationship where the green-eyed monster took over my girlfriend and she became totally intolerable. Question my every move, every word until I raced away in disgust. Once love and trust is that broken no hope remains. Great poem, A7..
