A Tragic Affiance

Absurdity walked this path of a whorish lane,
Dauntingly decked in a dark seductive  garb
Egregiously seeks the thrones by craftiness,  
Nebulous transverse for the wayfaring man. 
Illusions of a well worn thigh concealed with facial mascara.   
Killjoy bipolar nagging for control, demanding dominance by demonic antics,  
Eccentric public commodity makes it the brothels for quickie.   

Acrimony well taught from the market square by “Iyaloja”
Damaging defiance conscripting father to “garri Ijebu” and Fish 
Egomania derailed from home and deprived of morals, 
Sagged and perforated  lurid frame perfumed for a prey 
Offensive forlorn factious feigned facades 
Lacklustre and noxious mien  seduced the prey by lewd bait, 
Absurd Incentive the goal, merchandise of greed, A week of affiance.
