second hand wife
Donna was a second-hand wife to Larry.
Larry always mentioned it to people.
At church, on the street, at a bar.
He thought it was hilarious!
“Slightly used,” he would say.
Then he would laugh a donkey bray laugh.
She asked him more than once to stop.
Told him she did not think it was funny.
Today he is a second-hand husband.
And his new wife is making the jokes.
