New Woman With a Ring

In wedding ceremony
Bride told officiating priest
In the confession box;

“Wed me and my man,
Sooner than later; wait not
I confess this man I love not
He is not handsome enough
Age mate surely he not
I do not know him much
But there is one good thing
That I cannot miss of him;
A beautiful fat bag he owns

When it becomes ugly, thin
I’ll apply for rapid divorce
Other matters I’ll handle.”
