My Blatantly In Front of My Eyes Cheating Wife

I..................
Caught...............
My wife cheating...................
It had crossed my mind, should I give her a beating?

Instead, I sat on the edge of the bed,
Silence choked the room as nothing was said.

I stared at her, through the cheating, beauty I see,
She never dolled herself up like this for me.

She had her wooden eye in her head,
She looked quiet cute sprawled on the bed.

With lipstick smudged on her face,
In laddered stockings and torn black and white lace.

I thought she was about to speak but she played the mouth organ
I said, “You drunk cow, how could you cheat on me with Captain Morgan.

Ok she wasn’t drunk, she was very merry
And to top it off, under the covers was Ben and Jerry.

Now life’s pleasures, some are tall while others small,
But for me my friends I have a curse, a wife that will eat and drink’em all

Finally, if you thought it would turn out dirty, you will find,
It’s not in mine, but your dirty mind.

your poem has humor yet it is sad in a way because it is a reality for so many people
