Laster Bumhone, at forty two,
Provoked by forbidden passion
For his daughter’s friend, Angela,
Grow strong with lustful attention.
Mid life crises set on.
Adolescence love is reborn.
From his dear wife Carolyn,
He distances himself.
Day and night, he builds his body
With vigorous exercises
And finds ways to woo her madly.
He gets her and by guilt he dies.
Carolyn responds to advances
Made by her handsome colleague.
When is detected their romance
By her husband, she commits suicide.
A newly arrived neighbour lad
Takes fancy to her daughter Jane.
The disciplined father of the lad
Thrashes the budded love to naught.
Love is blind to hit anywhere.
The family is split somehow.
Unless given allowances,
Souls of family get no solace.
