Happily Merrily Divorced

--- BEFORE---

love birds coo coo  coo
mouths holding honeymoon hands
sailing rapture glow

                        ---NOW---

he morphed into a  shabby computerholic couch potato
triple sour grudges, the twisted naggings piercing falceto
mr. droid in the attic snoring, his belly bloated like a preggy hag
while garbage stinks as rotting romance wilts on witches’ swag
no night dates, he tickles women online with bills climbing loco loco
 
                               --- AND THEN---

 merrily soon-to-be-an ex, the droidcoholic shocked bones anew
 without a pre-nup, his mother’s mansion's in my name--- woo hoo!


( for P.D's divorce club contest)

WOW! This is a woman obsessed! Who can blame her with a husband "bloated like a preggy hag." Congrats on the selection and the mansion. Dave

DREAM ON, Nette. To think the average woman would get that lucy in a divorce these days. hahaha. But this is a great fantasy for us. Very good desciption of the "now" and the fourth line was a great analogy to the state of this marriage! Good luck in the contest with your unique approach to it. LUv, Andrea
