This poem, Cheater, sounds a bit like a lyrical work fit to be twanged and moaned out in a country song. Those cheating wives need to all get together and defuse a bomb.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Well no two ways about it, you have made up your mind and if you are the narrator, you have nothing but contempt in your heart. The poem certainly flows well and the composition of words are well chosen. The picture certainly tells all. Very well done.

But, one last comment "To Forgive Is Divine" and frees your heart of hate.

    I won't tell you if this is a true event or not, but you go ahead and forgive someone who cheats on you if that makes you feel better. Should you do so, you would be in a very small minority of people. Anyway, appreciate the review.

This poem had a very catchy rhythm. I liked the repetition of the phrase "you're a cheater, not a keeper." Indeed, why would you wish such a person well? Thanks for sharing.

This is a very good poem on the theme of a two-timing spouse. Not much else can be done, but to send him/her packing. Interesting artwork. Your poem is well rhymed and on an always timely topic. Marilyn

This is a great poem. The narrator sounds extremely angry.
The line:'I don't wish you well. May you roast in hell! My love for you is gone' would be funny if it wasn't tragic.
Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

A very well-written rhyming poem about the cheater that when caught is not worth keeping after the happy home is torn apart. Once a cheater wI'll always be a cheater.

I enjoyed the repeated lines here to make your point and cheaters never keep a happy home because once a cheater, always a cheater, there's sadness in these words Brett, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

You really must learn to express yourself clearly...stop holding back on your anger. (It's a JOKE!)

Holy embittered poet Bat Man! Great rhyming, great cathartic spewing of all the BS she put you through (assuming you aren't extremely good at making me think this is non-fiction when in fact you came up with it with a vivid imagination and a few shots of Jameson)---

My point? I'd feel the same way.

A purist might suggest a lack of punctuation, but I see this as performance poetry, delivered in a vengeful rush. Nice bit of aggro and plenty of rhyme and rhythm to drive it along. Good luck in the contest.
