Strange Marriage

On my wedding day
I exaggerated...
in place of waltz
a l played Rock music
in place of greeting
I gave in my rival 
an "uppercut" ...
Rather than
come softly
I came from "approach",
in place of one
ballad, I attacked of Rilke,
rather than verse,
I grabbed a Goethe ...

Rather than
light whisper, i
came from Barry White,
in lieu of apple juice
I served a "blood Mary"

In place of taking her
to the church,
I left her... I went to
a night out ..!
after all what
 happened...?  only God knows...!
