Love bite

She had written and talked about love alright,
She had married her very own gallant knight,
On that special day, dressed up in white,
Her first-born son had been named Dwight.

Since then her career had been all alight
As she had a talent; she could write.
And except that one time with a wright
She had kept to the straight and narrow aright.

But then on a terribly lonesome night,
Where there was significant danger of frostbite,
A different man; a Trotskyite,
Walked straight in to end the blight.

She was mesmerized and this in spite
Of the fact that he was rather impolite
At the debate that became a fight
Over intellectuals that always cite.

He was dressed in black and rather slight,
But at the meeting he lit a light
For a girl who could do with a sprite
And it all ended with an invite;

An invite to his bed with himself bedight.
She accepted; and he had only to ignite
Her passion with a very soft love bite
To see a woman unfold and with him unite.

Her inspiration soared again, but goodnight!
She faced a severe and brutal plight;
Her marriage had suffered a serious snakebite
From a man who could her excite.

However soft, it had been a bite.
And although I this tale do indite
It is not with ease or a heart that is light;
Since it led to her destruction outright.

Damn Trotskyites! Enyoyed the tale, it reminds me of Anna Karenina or the lesser known but fascinating German heroine Effie Brest... Welcome back to the bay!
