A Mistake Poem by Joshua Adeyemi

A Mistake



He travelled his eyes
through
the depth of the
atmosphere
And saw you standing:
Posing or scotting-you
were standing.
He sprayed his glottis
Products:
'I love something about
you' he'd said.
Bewitched by his words
you succumbed:
IT'S A MISTAKE.

He came around your
abode,
In love foggeries you two
arode.
He bid a plot of land out of
the acres of love in you:
You gave in to him:
IT WAS A MISTAKE.

He asked you to visit his
home,
He prepared lamb steaks
and baccaroni laced with
sweet potatoes.
You went to his home:
IT WAS A MISTAKE.

You finished eating, he bade
you
To lay on his foams.
You are reluctant but gave
in:
IT WAS A MISTAKE.

He caressed your depth,
Got you drown-lips in lips.
Discharge his fury in your
court:
IT WAS A MISTAKE.

What transpired led to a
contour,
'I'm pregnant for you', you
told him.
He said he's not ready to be
a father.
He gave you some pills,
You took the pills and slept:
IT WAS A MISTAKE.

You woke up without
intestines,
Your stomach hummed and
cursed the act.
Your breath fled from you:
DEATH TOO, MIS-TAKE.
