The Race To End Infidelity

Phwwwwwhht! 
Went the high pitched airy sound
From the tiny plastic whistle 
And off the competitors raced

Vroom!
The car engines revved
One Male driver with a Mistress in Toyota
Another Female driver with no one in a Honda

Zap!
The race began 
Toyota ahead 
Honda Behind

Kakpum!
Came the screeching Honda sound
Like the bad guy's tires 
In a cops-and-robbers chase

Shreeeerchhhh!
Came the halting Toyota Sound
As the driver and mistress go dumb
With hands above their heads

Phwwwwwhht! 
Came the final whistle
The race ended 
And none touched the finished line

Waah! Waah!
Came the sound of tears
From onlookers and the surviving competitors 
As they stared deep into space

Hahaha!
Came the voice of the judges
Who adored the Toyota Driver’s Bravery
And Condemned the Honda Competitor

Boo!
Came the voice of condemnation
For the Honda Driver
Whom they tagged “Foolish”
Blames filled the air 
For both the Toyota and Honda driver 
But no one won the chase 
So Infidelity remained
