A monstrosity
of misfortune
materializes
against him.
He should've
seen it coming.
He takes his girl
for granted;
apologizing
and pacifying her
with pricey gifts.
His fed-up lady
looks for love
elsewhere;
She eventually finds it
with another man.
his heart hollowed out;
dynamited
with a deafening bang!
Expensive gifts given
out of love for her,
he demands back.
--A gold bracelet
for her belated birthday.
--A ruby-red promise ring
to fuel their fading fire.
--The Pomeranian puppy
to mark their third
year of togetherness.
Someone's bitter!
