The Man with the Abusive Wife

She always had rages.
Often she attacked him.
Once she tried to hit
him with a bat.
Another time she
chased him with a knife.
Unfortunately he had
children with her.
She kept them
from him when he
finally left her.
She slandered him
online to her radical friends.
Said she wanted him dead.
The police warned him
about a plot to kill him.
She had lied to her radical
friends, claimed he had
sexually abused their
three little children.
His name besmirched,
his tolerance exhausted,
his life in jeopardy,
he killed her first and
then killed himself.
