You
wrapped your arms around her
as I watched. I cracked the code
and broke into your phone.
You’d
mapped your day with care;
in point of fact,
you’d
racked your brains
to sneak off on your own.
You said
you’d need
to factor in some rest;
that
stress and over-work
had sapped your strength.
In fact,
your health seemed fine;
from what I saw,
I might
have backed you
for a personal best
I’ve
packed your bags;
they’re outside with the trash.
I’ve
keyed your car and set fire
to your clothes.
Here’s
twenty quid in case
you’re strapped for cash.
Forget the
joint account:
it’s cleared and closed.
Don’t
look at me like that;
you trapped yourself.
You
wrapped your arms
around her large as life.
The fact
is lust can
undermine your wealth
when
you’re captured –
thus enraptured – by your wife.
