Tuesday night, home late from work
Creeping in quietly
Up the stairs I go to bed
To snuggle my girlfriend silently
Each step I take I hear a noise
Not from me or my feet
But from the bedroom across the hall
Where I lay my head to sleep
My girlfriend in her birthday suit
On top a big, bronze man
Surprised to see me home tonight
I turned around and ran
Next morning I receive a text
“I’m sorry, forgive me” and such
She was the love of my life
But maybe not so much
Revenge, the only simple answer
With this mess I will be done
A dinner date next weekend
Will surely be much fun
On the Internet, I search hard
For an ingredient that makes heads spin
A cheap price suits me well
For this slight, little sin
I made for her a lovely soup
And smiled with joy too much
Before the meal was completed
I added an extra touch
Anticipating her first slurp
I watch with a devious smile
She swallows, satisfied with her meal
And then her face goes wild
Hawaiian chili peppers
The hottest of its kind
Taught an important lesson:
Cheating- it will never cross her mind
