A sweet looking woman, all sugar and spice,
She comes off just the same to her friends,
A dead ringer for Mrs. Santa Claus,
And there similarity ends
So thoughtful and helpful and sweet she is,
At least when there are others there,
As soon as the last of the guests have gone,
I get fixed with that cold hateful glare
The comments she makes when you're not around,
Are enough to make hells demons cower,
And when shes a corpse and goes straight to hell,
She'll make satan relinquish his power
I can already picture a vision,
Of her making Satan her bitch,
She'd even make his blood run cold,
The conniving, bloodsucking witch
Behind my back shes mocking me,
And telling you things that arent true,
Want to curl up and die, I just want to go home,
But i flew twelve thousand miles to you
All i want now is for this to all end,
Whats done can not now be undone,
But wouldnt you think if she really did care,
She would want what is best for her son?

LOL. You had me laughing so much with this!!! The imagery is very vivid and I'm happy you vented your frustrations with pen and pad instead of choking the woman. Thanks for sharing with me.

excellent dont mess with it!
i love this! not the mother in law from hell but the one who'll be taking over! impossible to live with that. might have worked if he flew to you...that was great, thank you for sharing! oh i have 2 ex-mothers-in-law who would make excellent minions for her. -
I took a peek here anyway after your visited my poem on my mil. Well, what can I say? This really disagreeable person is out of your life now. I am sorry though that happened only after she had a change to mess up things badly. I hope you managed to re-emerge from this horror well and take control of your own life again. When reading the titles of your poetry (I haven't come around yet to do more yet) I suspect your mind is flexible enough to successfully start anew. I will be back to see what is behind the splendid titles of your poetry. Thanks for creating and sharing and hinting me towards this poem. I didn't make me feel more at ease with regard to my own mil but I liked reading the poem. Take care,

I've had to learn to remind myself that murder is illegal...if that law is ever repealled though...hehehe. Thank you for directing me to this poem. It's wonderful! -

some really good poems come out when you simply need to get something out, and arent neccesarily concerned with flow and whatnot... this happens to be one of them! (in my eyes at least) i surely hope i never get in a situation where a mother-in-law is so hateful, i wanna be the hateful bastard of the family! ;) great poem though, loved the pimping of satan aspect and all. she sounds like a whench! want me to attach some cement shoes to her feet and bring her swimming in the ocean? haha. great job on this one -
lol... danna this is getting scary hon. glad your hubby manages to stick up to her... lots more reasons my ex wouldnt.. least of which he was a pissweak bastard... but there u go. am sorry to hear she has done the damage already hon. and he needs his f#$%ing head read. wtf is it with these males and their mothers??? i mean does breast feeding seriously affect them or wot? coz sometimes it seriously feels like they would sooner lick their mothers arse than yours. damn getting into the kinky stuff now >:) lol

OMG... we have the same mother-in-law too...LOL.
Seriously, mine has tried to break-up my marriage more than once, but hubby is onto her. She has still done irrepairable damage to our relationship though, she destroyed some of the element of trust that we once had. -
roflmao... so wicked!!! your sense of humour is very similar to mine i think lol

this is so Right On! do you know the definition of 'mixed emotions'? that's when you see your mother-n-law drive your new car off a cliff.

What a bummer. Something I would dread a lot. I find that my mother is a much sweeter mother-in-law, now that my brother and his wife have made her a grandchild to fuss over. That sentence doesn't look like good English. :(?? -
excellent
I would tell you exactly what I think of mother-in-laws - if I wasn't afraid she might read this at some point. = )

Seeing as how I am too young to get married. I think my mother would appreciate this poem Considering my father's mother dispises my mother. Rather funny actually, and your poem made me think of their 'relationship'. haha. I suppose that is another one of the many drawbacks to marriage? So sorry you got stuck with the wicked stepmother. Hope it all works out for the best Cinderella. Have fun at your ball!! :) Thanks for commenting on my poems, Yours are wonderfully written!!!
