An Unconventional Marriage

Jan and Nan were not just twins but best friends, so when Stan got down on one knee, he got not one, but two, to say “I do.” Some thought him blessed; some found it strange, but Stan thought he got a good deal: two for the price of one. Til the day Ole Stan made one wife cry and met the wrath of two. Jan and Nan said Stan ran. But no one could ever be sure. The truth is, though, that Stan did could not leave town ‘cause he lies deep in the ground by the old cow barn where the twins milk the cows each day. They tell them to be strong and not take any bull, then they smile and go in and leave the cows to trod on top of Stan, who got his due.
