My Mother-in-law is Poisoning Me.

My Mother-in-law is Poisoning Me.

A Poem by Julie Grenness
"

Harmless bit of fun, years after the divorce.

"

I think my mother-in-law is poisoning me,

The electric range is smelling strange,

She tests the smoke detector by cooking everyday,

Now the whole kitchen is acting deranged,

Semolina at 3: 30,

Mercury says it's 120 degrees,

Nausea and cramps are rising in me,

Red sauced tripe is afflicting me,

Outside it's  Celsius 43 degrees,

Now Bulimia is afflicting me,

I have to stay for tea....


My mother-in-law is poisoning me,

There's a lot to be said for

D.I.V.O.R.C.E!!!!!
