Poetry: Getting Rid of the Itch (adapted)

First Voice::

Charm? Noooooo.!
Trained?? Noooooooooo !
Hubby can best struggle ,
strive to achieve addiction with the other half;
problems are then solved mostly,
and the struggle diminishes.
Just the minor matter of 30 or so years you see??
how can begum be trained to dote on hubby
while being in London on such a
short sojourn?
surely Ox street and Old Professor and libraries beckon.
pure 'salty and peppery'' charm i suspect.

Second Voice::

i wish most married men would follow
their 7-yr itch to its logical conclusion --
life would be so spicy.

The Bard:

.....but what would I do ?

I got a six and a half only !

Second Voice::

.......scratch yourself for 6 months to begin with..........

First Voice::

The itch dies rapidly
in a buzz light year
with one look at the trusting, unadulteratedly
loving faces of the children....

The Bard:::

Your words, friend , touched my heart but...

what would you do to kill the itch if----
you find your child or children's faces
smeared with blood-thirsty dragon's blood
in front of you
with YOU, hand-to-foot bound?
My friends, this life ain't not so simple,
no joke please....
Look at life in the eyes !!
