(marriage) Equality..... [see The Title; Personal Fantasy; Humor? (Let Me Know) ] Poem by Bri Edwards
(marriage) Equality..... [see The Title; Personal Fantasy; Humor? (Let Me Know) ]
I’m an American. So you know I KNOW about equality, right?
And I’m married. I strive for spousal equality with all my might!
Let me share with you how I help to keep my marriage EQUAL.
I’m so good at it that this is my 3rd marriage sequel.
[My wife’s a good wife, and so she does her fair share..... of the house work.
I’m a good husband, and I’m no slacker. Oh, NO! From MY chores I do not shirk.]
My wife makes our bed. I mess it up.
She washes plates and bowls. I wash my cup.
She washes our clothes. I say “Nice job.”
She hangs them on line. I tell her 'They’re dry.' I’m NO SLOB! ..... Oh, NO!
She cooks supper, though it’s sometimes late.
I eat every meal and even lick my plate.... and hers.
I turn on lawn sprinkler and she mows the lawn.....
though, to do so, she starts mowing at the crack of dawn......
(and wakes ME up!) .
The problem is she has a full-time job...... at a bank.
I have no “OUTSIDE” job. At regular jobs I stank.
But I’m glad that at home I can, and do, do my part.
I don’t, like SOME BUMS,.... just sit at home and fart.
What a hectic schedule, you have as an equal partner ! ! .... So zealously discharging the duties of a fulltime husband! After every meal, since you lick your plate and hers, I see that dish washing is made easier! Enjoyed the poem especially the last line! (though a little repulsive) A 10 for this slapstick write! !
Valsa, my best goes to YOU, always. Don't tell my wife! She will urge you to buy me from her! ! ! : )
A Well thought out and nicely crafted poem. Your ability to bring in humour in your works is something to be admired greatly.
I miss you, Valsa; I can hardly afford to lose any 'faithful' fans! ! ! ! But I know you STILL 'love' me, even though you fled to another poetry site! ! : )
GOLLY! Over 10 years this poem seems to have had comments from 28 different poets, IF you count the one from ME. 'Those WERE the days! ' Thanks, to all. : ) bri
sarcasm and irony. I'm lucky, because you warned me. What a hardworking husband 😅!
(cont.) I THINK my MAIN MISTAKE was marrying ALL of them on my birthday...IN THE SAME YEAR! ! ! : ( bri
AND I've warned ALL of my 4 wives......(one is STILL my wife, for 15 years (an amazing record) ....before marrying them; OK, maybe I did NOT.
Humorous as planned. Have you thought of why your 3rd wife may work full time. I like that you seem to not take anything serious. Go Bri
