The Reckoning

Part I: Wife to Husband You never pay me any mind. I'm sick of this. You hear me? If you don't find me interesting, perhaps you'd better fear me. The "choc'late" in that cake you ate Is laxative, I swear it! So please don't take the rest to work. Someone might want to share it. I plan to see my boyfriends soon. We always have such fun. We're gonna have a good old time, so soon I've got to run. Your boss asked when you're coming in. I told him you said "Never." I plan to have your brakelines cut, so take the bus forever. I've emptied all the bank accounts, So please don't write a check. I've boobytrapped the yard; I hope You fall and break your neck. Hey, you! Look up. Acknowledge me, You blank-eyed, drooling jerk! Part 2: Oblivious Husband's Response I'm really late. Just coffee, dear. I've got to get to work. May 28, 2016 for Poet Destroyer A's "Desperate Housewife" Contest
