Think Before You Thread

Not all poems are written to be read
Not all words are said to be heard
Not all hands can mouths be fed
Not all necks can stand a head
Not all boys can you befriend

Because I'm single you decided to wed
A charming man with his skin all red
The boxer still beat you till your bare eyes shred
Marriage ended in bondage,
And he left you, unfed.
Life is a puzzle you can't retread
Are you thinking about what I just said?
Yeah! Better think well before you thread.
