Third World Rich

He thought he was her intended,
a lovely looking woman from Thailand.
She made him promises and said
she needed money to survive
because she was third world poor.

And because she loved him
and hoped they’d get married
someday when he came to
Thailand to be her husband.

So like a caring gentleman
who wanted to save her
from the poverty and strife,
he sent her $500 every month
and was rewarded with more
love bombs and virtual kisses.

Unknown to him she had
six other intendeds sending
her money every month and
was working on six more
for a sweet setup where she
could be third world rich.
