Word Prompt

Charlatan

Challenge

First of fifteen
She’d not be swayed
None shall I have!
She vehemently said
Yet, at twenty-four
A fourth! No, oh dread!

Determined was she
To end this misfortune
Doctor could help
Illegal abortion
The place was so filthy
She recoiled in aversion

A charlatan is he
She turned to flee
Thank goodness
Because
My mother and me
Would never be!

    And on a different note, from an ever increasing curmudgeonly recumbent old crow, “Happy Birthday and shtufffs”. Grunt Grunt Dash Dash Grunt Grunt!
