Guilty as Charged
By Larry Chadwick


I would like to plead guilty as charged,
Insanity is not needed as a defense.
Although we could take this to trial,
There is certainly enough evidence.

Exhibit A could very easily be,
All the public displays of affection.
You could call enough witnesses,
If you had such a predilection.

But if it would save you some expense,
I could write a lengthy confession.
There is no need for the Supreme Court,
I have an uncontested obsession.

Though an unbiased jury may be hard to seat,
As my guilt is so widely known.
Exhibit B would likely be,
Photographic proof of love shown.

But if you’d like to go straight to the sentence,
I’d gladly accept a term for life.
So go ahead convict me,
I’m guilty of loving my wife.
