Sense Sonnet - Acher

Foote Pain

The brothers, Foote, both courted her.
She married the older one, Jim.
A car accident did occur.
Jim died, and so she buried him.
She and the other brother, Ted,
Sometime later began to date,
And soon after were newly wed.
Then struck again the hand of fate.
Ted, too, was in an accident,
His chances of survival slim.
She, being in such great torment,
Begged with the doctor to save him.

"This husband, please, you've got to save."
"Please. I've got one Foote in the grave."
