Door 2 Door Sails

An housewife in need of a poke
Was charmed by a sweet-talking bloke
He gave her what-for
Then dashed out the door
Because he mis-spoke and he's broke

The Lonely House Wife

The lonely housewife was bored
So, she hopped into her fiery ford
Drink and danced all night
Then got into a fight
She tussled and gourd until she was floored

Dust

There once was a housewife named Claire
Who shook out her mop in the air
The dust whirled like stars
The Earth, Moon, and Mars-
Who’s shaking a dust mop up there?

Danger Passion

Excites me strongly a strange housewife
Passion for her deprives of peace my life
She is inaccessible because of my poverty
If I live further - I'll get a precious property

Grappling With Problems

Grappling with problems.
The hands in being now
Occupied with this
Unburdened somehow.
Digging up the weed
Dead heading flower.
Cares of the housewife
Composted this hour.

Gossip Column

Desperate housewife I know you are there
looking out the window behind the glare,
so while I'm cutting the grass
I feel your eyes cutting glass...
C'mon over! Let all the neighbors stare!!

Famine of Love

In this era of famine of love
A housewife cum call-girl
Gives me a little bit of it
Her husband is a drug-addict
And she has a kid to bring up
Anyways thanks God she is
To try to cure my love disease.

Spam, Spam and More Spam

I keep getting spam emails
From Ms Fatale Attraction
Who is a bored housewife
Looking for some hot action
With a younger man, if poss
So if I keep receiving her siren-ing
I might just reply to her
Then I can send her my ironing

This Morning At February End

As the apricot sun rises, In the hollow creek rise flows like fog Biting cold surrounds me Shivering happens from my toes up The warmth of the house's interior Invites me to come in Even though duty awaits the housewife A day of ordinary begins

Mia's Fallow

A frustrated housewife called Mia Wore nighties so skimpy and sheer There’s no roll in the clover Hubby snored and turned over His impotence is her greatest fear Yesterday I saw a pic of actress Mia Farrow and had a bit of fun with the word play with her name 8/22/18

The Weeping Housewife

Another load of ironing
Another meal to make.
I wish we’d all stop dining
So I need not cook or bake.

Another room needs cleaning.
Another floor to sweep.
My life has lost it’s meaning.
I feel so sad, I weep.

But there are rays of sunshine,
With songbirds in the flowers.
And on these sights my mind will dine.
I’ll be happy within hours.

How Do You Follow Perfect

You can’t be serious
She’s nothing but a hag
Her clothes don’t match
Her hair’s a mess
She can’t be bothered
To wear a dress
No lipstick, blush or style at all
Her hips have got that housewife sprawl
How could you prefer her to me
When it’s clear my equal she
Will never be
As for brains, she’s sadly lacking
If I were you I’d send her packing

Philosophy of a Housewife

The furniture needs a dusting
The floors mopped and swept
The bathroom needs a scrubbing
The evening  meal to prep

Dirty dishes line the counter
The laundry's in a heap
Pet hair on the cushions
The windowpanes are streaked

In such disarray, I'm overwhelmed
I really should get hopping
But, tomorrow IS another day
I think I'll just go shopping!

Milk Delivery

Imagine you’re a housewife
With secrets to conceal
The milkman’s coming every day
As he does he screams ’Unreal’!
Imagine you’re a husband
Who’s chanced upon the scene?
The shock on her face as she turns
From flush hot pink to green!
‘Darling you’re home early,
You should have called me first,
I ordered extra milk today,
To quench my awful thirst’!

Hypocrisy

The adulterous housewife
point fingers 
at the prostitute down the street

How sluggish is the tortoise 
said the snail
yet slow in her own little shell

The toad has no stool to offer
who preaches so?
The squatting jumping frog!

Devil on the pulpit 
preaching repentance
with an unrepented heart 

The log is in your eyes
let be my little sunshade glasses
you holy Pharisee

Brushes

housewife brushes teeth after busy day, black specks .... vine ripe blueberries?
My husband brought in blueberries for me to wash and prepare for him to put in the freezer. I ate some as I was working, when I brushed my teeth getting ready for bed, I saw what I thought was black stuff in the sink. I was trying to figure out what in the world..You know the rest of the story.

Vertically Opposite

To Beloved

You wanted to be my beloved.
But becoming a housewife in the long run,
You transformed air into storm.
My heart trembles now in that storm.

To King

You wanted to be a king.
But ascending the throne, 
You became a robber.
Now people flee away 
Seeing you. 

To Poet

Going to be a poet, 
You became an intellectual.
Now your mouth is only active
Because your pen has run out
And has become a dead canal.
