Am I Poem by Randy McClave

Am I ever planning to get married again
To be honest I'll answer yes, no, maybe, now or when,
Don't know if I'm ready to go down that road
And I don't know if I wanna again carry that load.
Do, I really want to find another wife
Do I really need those worries and complications and strife,
I truly enjoy the current life that I am living
And truly I enjoy having no misgiving.
I also enjoy being alone and not bothered so I can write
And not being accused of ignoring which will start a fight,
And I also enjoy going to bed very late
I don't wanna be yelled at, because for me she had to wait.
I enjoy going to the local grocery store to shop
I enjoy going there for a quick stop,
But, I don't like going with coupons and a long grocery list
And when I get home I don't wanna get yelled at for something I missed.
I like doing things on the spur of the moment
That is my greatest bestowment,
And I would hate it if I am told that I can't go out
Because, I must stay at home because a family or friend needs a bailout.
I like going out to restaurants to eat
But, I hate going with anyone who doesn't like their seat,
And one statement I don't want to ever hear in restaurants
Is if she says she's not hungry, or she doesn't know what she wants.
A wife I guess to have would maybe be good enough
Especially when you enter though those days which are rough,
When you want to find that someone to share your life with
But, so far for me, I found out that story was just a myth.
I was asked if I would try marriage just one more time
Just one more time to hear the wedding bells chime,
They always say that three times is the charm
But, I have always heard the third time causes the most harm.
