Karma
This husband & wife couple were quite the pair;
He would say "boo" & she jumped in the air.
However, they managed to fool their family & friends;
With their mastered game of kiss & pretend.
For they thought if he was to be found dead,
That she would drop to the ground like sunken lead.
They would not have imagined that it was arson indeed;
That burned their home down as an act of pure greed.
For he had taken out an insurance policy on his wife;
Which would make him rich if not caught with a knife.
So he had thought it safer to burn her in a fire;
Which he set to his home using two live wires.
However, just by chance she poured out her drink;
Which had the traquilizers in it for he did not think.
Thus she had got up when she smelled the smoke;
And locked him inside for karma is indeed no joke.
