Memories of My First, Second & Third Wife

Her twig-

A ferocious goblet of fire,

That once burned my desire,

In the tiny blemishes that bled.

Her tears-

Reacted like nitric acid,

Corroding our fake homes pallid,

That soaked every smoke between souls.

Her ****

Became the chalice of profuse disease,

That kept me away from natural release,

Like some yellow lady in Connecticut*.

Yellow Lady in Connecticut- A rare wild flower in that region

Notes: MMFSTW is a ******** poetic fiction. The poet exaggerates three characteristic features of a woman as his wife individually because of the hidden complexities behind them the poets of our times long ago explored. The first wife is symbolized as the comfort giving nature of a woman that gathers dry and solid twigs from the jungle to enlighten and provide warmth to her family that ignores her hard work and struggles and frequently disgraces her. Yet she carries on her duty till she bleeds on her efforts. The second quality wife is depicted in the form of tears flowing down the cheeks of a woman. The bitterness of the salt caused from her tears have concentrated acid powers equivalent to nitric acid that can burn or faint a house that evokes the same. But the feminine tear is a precious boon as well with salts of happiness and sacrifice in it. The third and foremost essential feature of a woman qualifies her as a wife as well. It is her obsessive ****** ***** that betrays adult idealism and mostly confines a man to responsible captivism once indulged in it. The magical pleasure is vigorous and binds eternal against the manhood cherished freedom from moral conduct and marital responsibility.
