A Mis-Justice of Carriage

another poem for the sake of a spoonerism

His permanently-arched back

Is a gross mis-justice of carriage

Brought on by decades of marriage

His spine simply got twisted in two

By the net weight of "Honey-do"

A sharp, cheeky jab at domestic life—humor carrying a bite beneath the rhyme.
Light on its feet but lands solid, that last line delivers the punch clean.
