THE SLAPPED CUCKOLD

A cuckold couldn’t hold –
…on to his wife
And couldn’t be bold
…so hated his life

II
He laid a trap
…to bait her lover
But got a slap
…which made him see clearer

III
He was like a lost puppet
…on a dangerous ground
And became a vacant socket
…who no mercy found

IV
Then he saw it
…the intense thrill of their act
And knew it
…his failing fact

V
Stand to take
…all fours down
Side in take
…upside down
Locked to take
…slap the town
Then shyly became the clown
Always hail-Marying
…with his short chop stick

VI
His gross green teeth
…and dirt filled feet
His old worn clothes
…and stinking armpits
Reduced him to a maggot
…in the centre of his mind
And so it happened
…that he took a run
…in self banishment

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)

He saw how well skilled his rival was after catching them in the act and fled. 💓👑 Metaphorically, be attentive to self details in love and learn how to use what you have well.
