If you can't stand the furnace
Of marriage where temperatures can soar solar levels
Marry not and save your face
Or else you'll soon be cursing devils and evils.
If you can't stand the thorns
Of marriage roses that can prick your sensitive
Nature, don't marry and blow SOS horns
In your home; spare yourself from eyes and noses inquisitive.
If you can't stand a nagging and lashing tongue
That sometimes sneak into a marriage through normal channels
Enmeshed in tempers too young
To handle the marriage vortex, don't inscribe your name in marriage annals.
If you can't stand scrutiny
That under a microscope slide
Analyses foibles and imperfections long before destiny
Strides along, be glad towards marriage you'll never ride.
