Salaries That Build No House

Mark's salaries could build him no house,
Just gave him computer with a mouse,
After a half year's savings with grouse
For a machine that would new jobs browse...

Mark's pays fed him and Big Mouse in house:
Carelessly gaped pots for Prompt Big Mouse;
If Mark stopped gaping them ate wife's blouse:
The sight of blouse attacked by Mouse cows...

Mark's mind keeps telling him there's some house
He could check into and meet no mouse,
Let alone one which would near wife's blouse
And his Mark's virulent anger rouse.

For now Mark's salaries for the louse
That had his long hairs made its sweet house

A new fight to win; new embers douse...
