Poetry: Only a husband

(With Only) A Husband To Help Her



I cannot really tell for sure
if she hates me, the house
or the kids the most
but I'm guessing it's probably me...

assaulting her agenda
there are
so many things to do
and so little time to do them

with only a husband to help her




People just get in her way, and the partner's
a potent reminder
of all that angers her
now

and only this husband to hear her




(Unspoken) Broken promises, sexual
frustration; and the inescapable
impossibility
of preserving a marriage...



(singlehandedly)



att acking her agenda
she can't move past her anger
She's got so many things to do
and so little time to do them



and only a husband to help her
