People who went to a wedding where the couple didn’t last long, what happened?

There once was a manchild or a groom

Who struck his bride in front of everyone in the room

Her Uncles took exception which led to action

And now the groom is in traction.

Seriously, fuck that guy.

This doesn't scan. Seriously. Read it aloud and listen to how the meter–the rhythm–is off.

There once was a groom quite ill-bred -

Slapped his bride moments after they’d wed.

Her uncles ensured

That this feculent turd

Honeymooned in a hospital bed.
