Used, Deceived, And Discarded Poem by Practicing Poetess
Used, Deceived, And Discarded
You told your boss the other day
That now you're in a family way
And then you threatened to tell his wife
If he didn't leave her, for you and new life.
You're young and pretty; yes, it's true
Now there's a child to think of, too.
You thought he'd leave his wife for you?
I hate to say, they never do.
So now you're dead, floating in a lake
Because you made a big mistake
And fell for the lies of an older man,
Who only used you to get what he can.
Dark poem. I really enjoyed it very much. Also, how true is what you said. I've seen it time and time again.
I used to watch Forensic Files programmes, and this is an all-too-common scenario. Dead mistress found stuffed into a barrel. Dead mistress found in a river. Dead mistress found in the woods. Warning: Don't be a mistress. Or if you do, don't threaten to tell his wife if he doesn't increase the child support, or if he doesn't divorce her to marry you. that's a bad move to make.
Great poem filled with suspense. It kept me on the edge of my seat.
You possess a mind that leans towards the macabre, Mr. Remler. (That is, when you're not busy composing brilliant children's poetry, which I love!) : -)

A chilling story but so accurately portrayed! Cheating men never leave their wives. If you like I just wrote a simliar one that you might enjoy called the double life. It is sad but the cheater also has a problem. Wonderfully written, my friend and I will be reading some more of your work soon as I am able. :)
Thanks, Aqua. You know I value your opinion, and it is always good to hear from you! : -)
