THE SOAP OPERA
Oh the soap opera!
So entertaining,
yet devastating;
I wonder how old ladies ,
Watch them daily,
The TV itself must be sick, of showing a drama so thick!
So full of mom – in – laws,
With tiger claws,
The soap operas portray, in an exaggerated way,
The pain of being a daughter – in – law,
In a state of awe!
They are obliged to have a protagonist,
And by chance a terrorist,
The audience is faithful,
And director blissful,
Some think it’s a hit, others get a fit.
The scenes are jaw – dropping,
And hopes nearly flopping,
Tough rivalries, rough enmities,
To men it’s fiction; to women addiction!
A waste of time, truly.
And characters often unruly,
Oh the soap opera!
