Love At First Sight

an electrical charged
thunder bolt
struck right through
the centre into collaps'd
stupendous magnificent
division

PITY

She

came too late
had the wrong culture
had the wrong religion
had been married before
had the wrong profession
did not like domesticity
did not tolerate servility
was too opinionated
was too intense
was too emotional
was too demanding
wasted time writing poetry
rather than earning dollars

He

who was perfect

was also an accountant

  1. Ha. interesting 'love story' here. LOL
    the structure is uniquely delightful.
    the bolt, then the PITY. next, 'she' then 'he'
    your reader (me) likes this play on structure.
    her traits against his one.

    funny and fun and great. Love it.
    thank you.
