I will surely get back to you when I come online.
Many a home wrecked,
Emotions at war,
Homes in turmoil,
Legs on his heels,
Bar a home of peace.
Traditionally he acquires her
with a smile,
Religiously he makes her
his screensaver,
His heart beats for her,
Then comes the metamorphosis.
She dresses like a masquerade,
Her bedroom shines like shrine,
Her breast sags,
Her armpit grows like shrubs,
Men moved by what they see.
She sleeps and snows,
She lies like a lifeless log,
He desires to acquire her love,
But she rebukes him.
He longs for a conjugal bliss,
She strictly gave him the
religious style,
Stylistically he begs for more,
But ignorantly she ignores him
His hunger humiliated.
His eyes smile at a young
maiden,
His heart dances to the rhythm
of her breast,
Her breast adores for a decade.
Home a market place,
She rants like bees,
Hearts hurt in pains
Marriage a conjugal misery
Then divorce set in.

- Comment from author about the poem: The poem reflects on marital problems where troubles creep in as a result of lack of hygiene and bedmatic experiences. Marriage comes with ups and downs, it takes two to tangle in marriage. The poem chides a wife who is naive to marital journey and experiences. Her dressing at home goes a long way to attract her husband for a conjugal bliss. But when a wife don't take good care of herself, her husband is bound to cheat on her. Even on the bed of marital bliss, the wife lacks experiences on how to handle her husband. Such also create room for the man to cheat.
