Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

A Perfect Mismatch

He couldn't stand her temper tirades
   She ranted and raved about bills left unpaid

A tragic couple they were, a perfect mismatch ~
   Their marriage contract containing no escape hatch

Lindsay Laurie January 21, 2022 at 5:05 PM Hello Gershon ... it is said that opposites attract; but for how long? Thank you Gershon - Lindsay

Paul Callus January 18, 2022 at 6:17 AM Looks like he brought out the worst in her by his own mishandling of the situation. Instead of temper tirades she ought to calmly plan her next move. ~ Regards // paul

L Milton Hankins January 16, 2022 at 8:32 PM That's a sad situation, gw. I'm thinking one or the other should go find a divorce lawyer. They know all of the escape hatches!
