Some Have Wives

Some have wives
Who have turned them to wives
The daily chores are theirs
In addition to paying the dues
They dare not turn them down
Else they get the treatment of a clown
They are the terrors of their lives
The ones they call their wives.

I liked this look into male/female relationships. This was and interesting take on an age old question.

Thanks. Had to do it. Some men face domestic violence and abuse.
