Funom Makama Poet Acrostic

The Mistress

Thankfully number two, she’s contented with it
Hides when the landlord comes around to feel smart with the game
Endless calculations and planning, giving unfaithfulness a honey taste

Master strategist in creating spare time no matter how little
In order to steal and passionately enjoy what she doesn’t deserve
Shares the comfort and heartbeat of another without any bother
Theft of the body and emotions, becoming another woman’s problem
Romance becomes raw, athletic with the flavours of adrenaline
Emotions may set it, then the pleasure gradually progresses, she
Sows immensely in trying to beat the actual owner
Seemingly to stop being the accessory, the sharer and the spare.

Debbie Guzzi May 29, 2015 at 5:17 PM Very true verse having low self worth makes ones life very hard, no matter how it comes about we should fight to believe [for it's true - we are as good as anyone else - can be - if we'd only believe] Thanks for so often stopping by my verses. Light & Love Funom Makama December 5, 2015 at 9:23 AM Thank you very much Debbie

Constance La France May 28, 2015 at 3:03 PM Funom, I do not like the idea of mistresses, it is too deceitful but still your poem was well penned, excellent 7 and thanks for visiting my poem, its summer, yes I did meander on. . .

Diane M Quinlan May 28, 2015 at 1:45 PM This truly speaks for all the 'mistresses' out there. If only a lot of aging men going through 'mid-crises' could feel the same; as you do and think twice about courting a woman who is 'worthy' in his mind to use. Great imagery and being a great read it was a pleasure to delve in and read between your lined word/work! Thanks for sharing....didee Funom Makama December 5, 2015 at 9:19 AM Thank you very much Diane
