Poetry by Jim: I’m gone

thought you knew
my love was true
I suffered no clue
you laid with a few

you blame the drug
or maybe the jug
you imply ba humbug
then hide it with a hug

her ample beauty is thin
it ceases below the skin
her self regard starts then
I’ll never trust her again

you done me wrong
for much to long
so bang the gong
because I’m gone
