Vile stench
Choking aroma,
Laden within the sheets
Not disgusting
Mind playing tricks
Not mine,
But whose she meets?

Imprinted in my beleaguered mind
This putrid, poisoned scent,
In her car,
On her clothes,
Her underwear he went

Stinking, burning deathly smell
Of destruction and betrayal,
Broken home
Damaged life
Life's efforts all but fail.
