Tiger Ain't Out of the Woods Yet

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: December 13, 2009

The penalty strokes are more than he expected…

Is he out of the woods? You kidding me?
He's in quite deep. Tiger's OB.
He may feel under-par for years.
His wife will see to that.

She caught her Tiger in a tale
that he made up to hide his trail
of late-night shots with lady friends
that led to errant ways.

The moral of this sordid mess
is "Run from youthful lusts," I guess.*
The penalty for giving in
is more than what you'd think.

No matter what a person makes
they aren't exempt from traps and lakes.
The hazards of celebrity are... well...
par for the course.

* "Flee the evil desires of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart." (2 Timothy 2:22)
