Scandalous

She kisses daughter goodnight
Tells husband "i have errands to do"
She parks her car around the block
and waits for his blue malibu

Passion,concupiscence, surrender
entangled lips hips wantonness
Her gnawing wishful longing inferior
to guilt she desperately craves to suppress

Late at night she carries bags into a hush darkened home
converts herself into expected archetypal guise
She unpacks and tucks away fibs she bought yesterday
while struggling to tuck away screaming scandalous lies

I don't know why.. but as SOON as I read the prompt.. I was brought back..
Way back to a memory of a family I knew when I was a very young girl.
Way back then it was OH SO much LESS heard of and OH SO much MORE scandalous..
but I always imagined my friends mother feeling OH SO remorseful.
(please bear in mind.. This is a demonstration of a poetry attempt.... Kids- Do Not try this kind of poetry without proper training)
