She's Just Nagging Again

mother of two boys
nagged at dad clowning by pool
one dive too many ~
forgive my raised jaded brow
'nag' now aids paraplegic

Line, a rather dark well written Tanka. An intense way to get your point across.

A true story I heard a long time ago that always stuck with me. Thanks for your visit, James.
