A poem about marriage

Mid-30s vibes. Fall in love, fall out

of Love.

Fall for a fling. A flirtation, a

Demonic being.

Too many children.

Who actually wants

Them?

Babies crying, need more money

To hire somebody else to

take care of these screeching

needy, lumps of poo and wee.

Too tired to cook. Feeling guilty

At the Drive-Thru.

Self-loathing, self-esteem

Lowering.

Swipe, swipe, swipe…

Tempting.

What did we sign or not sign

before our wedding?
