Wife of Socrates, was a royal shrew

Old Man Eloquent, knew not what to do

Little doubt that this woman he did dread

After she dumped a piss pot on his head

(What of your gal pal, dear reader? Behoove!

A philosopher be – your smartest move)

Love of wisdom and life of the mind rich

Just a hitch: one can’t reason with a bitch

From her he could only run, but not hide

The ultimate solution? Suicide!
