My Father's Wife Poem by Mariah Ali
My Father's Wife
You stupid woman
You messy woman
You dirty woman
These are the words he uses on her each morn
She! a submissive wife_utters nothing
All she does is just sigh and carry on with her daily duties
My father's wife as i affectionately call her
Because, he! the husband bears my father's name _sadly
He! the husband fails to appreciate the flower he has
He treats her with scorn in the day
And false love during the night_only to satisfy his canal desire
Such man!
She! the wife, a woman of beautiful countenance
A virtuous woman of substance
A daughter of her beloved late father
A father who would have tore the husband into pieces if he was alive
As i observe them each morn
I ask myself...oh my father's wife
What did you do to deserve such man!
Then a voice answers -just keep watching and learning
There is always a day of recompense for our deeds
