The Swan I Married Became A Moose Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The Swan I Married Became A Moose



Crusted mustard breath,
I awakened to...
When I loved you.

String beans on your teeth,
I thought divine.
One time.

But when we got divorced,
I forced myself to really see...
How the Swan I married,
Became a Moose!

A big and wide behind,
I didn't mind to follow.

I thought it fantastic,
To climb on top.
When we made our version,
Of love.

But when we got divorced,
I forced myself to really see...
How the Swan I married,
Became a Moose!

I saw you recently,
I did not recognize you.
My eyes laid on your breasts,
And hips so fine.

But then you reminded me,
Of my ignorance.
And what that did to you.

You then left me looking stunning!
And I felt such the fool!

Crusted mustard breath,
I awakened to...
When I loved you.

String beans on your teeth,
I thought divine.
One time.

But when we got divorced,
I forced myself to really see...
How the Swan I married,
Became a Moose!

And that 'moose' today...
I wish I had not abused!

'Wow, dude?
WHO was that gorgeous woman you tried to hit on?
She's hot! '

That 'was' my ex-wife!

'Yeah, right.
Then one of us is a big liar.
You told me your ex-wife
Could be a side attraction at a circus! '

That was my ex-wife!

'Okay. Snap out of it! '

That was my ex-wife.

'Man, you okay?
Hey...
We all got our fantasies, right? '

Seriously,
That WAS my ex-wife!
