Adulterers!
Cheating spouses, toxic affairs,
People doing things without care.
Lying terribly to family and friends,
Nothing more disgusting, then lusts end.
Hammer comes down, they been found out.
A verbal match igniting into a horrendous shout.
Fists fighting,
Mothers crying,
Daddy’s lying,
The other woman lays dying.
Trigger pulled,
Daddy’s fooled,
Mother lost her cool.
She deserves it,
Daddy’s well lit,
Mother’s going down and don’t give a shit.
Many years he played this game,
Battled the bottles and called momma names.
Year after year, everything was the same.
Then last night, mom found out the truth.
Determination set, she had nothing to loose.
So she showed up, and put a bullet in his mistress’s caboose.
Bright eyed lady gasping for air,
Mom shrugged it off & I didn’t care.
Daddy ran for days, but he caught his share.
First degree murder, the woman died.
Mom was real sad and daddy cried.
Cops came to me, so…I just lied…

Hmm I think.
I think I would too if I were in the same situation and perhaps I would have shot him too. But then in the end he got what he deserved.

I like how it seems a bit jumbled. Really well done and perfect fitting in with the contest. Thank you! And lol yeah, you're not the only one who's gotten so close to it.
Also, "loose" should be "lose".
