After years of searching
For inner peace
For tranquility
For true euphoria
I have finally found the answer
A little bottle that holds the secret
The magic potion that will bring me eternal bliss
I pop open the lid
And add a generous helping to my husbands plate
I wait as he savours each bite
“There’s something new in there”
“There sure is, honey”
“Hmmm… what is that taste”
“You’ll never believe what it is”
“I don’t feel so good…”
“You’ll never guess”
“WHAT DID YOU PUT IN MY FOOD?”
“Some celery, carrots, onions and about half a bottle of rat poison”
I lean back enjoying the silence
What a wonderful evening this turned out to be
About “The Secret To Inner Peace”:
Disclaimer: No husbands were harmed in the writing of this poem. This poem is a work of fiction and any resemblances to real life poisonings I have committed are entirely accidental.
I wrote this poem and shared it on here because it came to me in the middle of the night the other day. It’s one of those poems where I’m just having fun with it and going where my mind takes me. And that often leads to random twists and turns at the end lol.
