Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 The Woman From Ironbark

The man from Ironbark went back there,

And told the wife about the joke,

The barber cutting his throat scare.

Of course the man returned home broke,

And expected the wife to work

For pay, and do chores 'round the house,

Give all her wages to the jerk,

Work like a slave to please the louse.

One night the wife could take no more,

And while the Ironbark man did nap,

She did unto him one last chore,

And no joke on this worthless chap.

Ironbark authorities then took note,

The woman really cut the man's throat.
