His voice was torment to my ear

Excruciating as a saw

that screeches as  it chews and jaws

His voice was torment to my ear

His odour filled canals  with tears

In short I hated his loud voice

But my parents made him  their first choice.

To disobey was quite a wrench

Until I recalled his woeful stench

Yet some lifebuoy  soap and elocution

lessons might have made this persecution

lessen and so  I could have

pleased my parents ,would I had.

Oh aha ,I ran away

And here I am with you today.

But where he is,no-one will say

His hat was sold just yesterday.
