When jilted she hit like jinxed brandy,
And called her much-married man dandy,
Branding ‘midnight baby’
That lived his life shabby,
‘No, I was never his ‘arm candy’.
__________________________________________
A woman jilted sings of perfidy with a
wilted tongue. This is what happened to
Salman Rushdie, a well-known author. His
latest divorced wife has some special
adjectives for him. The woman who felt
jilted was Pia Glenn. ‘Midnight baby’ is
a euphemism for ‘bastard’. Does it make
Salman’s Midnight’s Children’ of the same
class?
