The Failed Marriage (2-Verse Limerick)

A woman was stunned and aghast
On learning her husband’s dark past.
Seems the man had a sheet
That was long and replete
With crimes both severe and half-assed.

So she threw her spouse out on the street
With the help of two lawyers elite.
(For divorce, they were tops!)
No surprise that the cops
Now have murder to add to his sheet.

    Please Attest To the Rest

    Do not leave us an incomplete tale
    of calamitous marital fail.
    In the sordid detail
    you decline to regale,
    is there wisdom, at least, to avail?

    Give us moral that should be observed
    in the chill that has left us unnerved —
    is the second mistake
    the one never to make
    though it seeks to have justice be served?

    Or instead should we wiser surmise
    that stupidity — given reprise —
    assures but attorneys’
    luxurious journeys
    on the seas of the fees it supplies?
