Love Poem: Jealous Spouse

Jealous Spouse

Married to cooking
in love with writing
when the Muse walks in
In the kitchen I'm frying
rice, carrots, garlic a sin
I abandon for a few verses that rhyme
return to find black smoke with grime
hardened charcoal to dine
revenge of that jealous spouse of mine
