I Didn’t Say That Out Loud

I Didn’t Say That Out Loud

When you belittled me in front of your wife

I didn’t destroy you,

by saying to her laughing face

Don’t you dare laugh,

I had him many times,

in my bed,

on my floor. In your bed also.

I didn’t tell you

his darling wife,

he said I excited him

to the point of making love

four times in a row

I didn’t wipe the smile off your faces

because I choose not to

Not just yet.

However

I will

one day

that is a promise.

Just for now

I let you both play

and laugh out loud.

you laugh please do,

while he watches

in an amused fear

of you going too far.

Yes, too far

his darling wife

that the fat lady will come out,

not to play no,no

but to sing a song

she has rehearsed so well
