He Thises, She Thats; They Both Bit-Of-Bothed Poem by Onkgopotse Ramatiti

When true emotions make way to pride
Differences deemed irreconcilable
Damages deduced irreparable
And third party impartial on the part of either side

Crisis reaches emergency proportions
Yet details on the status quo a bit sketchy
Progression therefore ought to be made with caution
For the mood is still patchy

She fits that description
And I’m talking picture-perfect
Yet she sits with the depiction
Of a downtrodden defect

His friends sugarcoated
Her girls stigmatized
Family members left the situation bloated
As day by day the war supersized

They once shared a gift so damn Divine
And treating it like this is way outta line
Living arrangements resembling a see-saw
Despite populace having witnessed what he and she swore

Both parties unwilling to hone their attitude
Rather expressing considerable latitude
The extent led to culpable homicide
Were these tensions palpable? You decide...
