The Rubaiyat poetry form for dVerse Poets Pub.
He was the man they loved to hate
For reasons one can’t clearly state.
A lonely man without a friend,
It seemed like much too cruel a fate.
A wealthy man who dared not spend
This one rule he would not bend
One day he met a girl named Kate
And fell in love end over end
She liked him too, and could not wait
For him to ask her for a date
And so it went until the day
He found out Kate was jail-bait.
Too young was she to have a man
All he could say was damn, damn, damn.
They kissed goodbye and parted ways
But not before they hatched a plan.
One rainy night they ran away
Together always, night and day
He spent his money, wild and free
It’s true, their love was meant to be.
Ergo, the Ogre 
Tell it like it is
