you Married Me for What ?

Why do I spend my time writing stuff like this? Keeps me from shooting myself after listening to Washington crap.


You Married me for What?

I’ve never trusted men you see,
Then how come you married me,

Are you truly a real man,
You can tell, if anyone can,

Last time that I checked,
I was still bedecked,

If you married me for money,
Lady you were being funny,

I’m not a sugar Daddy, Boy that ain’t no lie,
I didn’t have two dollars for that Bible guy,

If you married me to travel,
You saw that quick unravel,

A tour boat never left my harbor,
My longest trip is to the barber ,

If you married me for social standing,
You were in for a rocky landing,

And speaking now of a big wheel ,
Now you know how the homeless feel,

If you married me for joy here after ,
You were in for a disaster,

You being one of the snooty kind,
Cain’t be what, you had in mind,

If you married me for my looks,
Your eye glass doctor, should be booked ,

Hound dog ugly ain’t where I’m at,
But I’m gittin awful close to that,

If you married me for my social view,
How does social Red neck grab you,

If you married me for a place to stay,
There’s plenty of room just come my way,

Yeah no fridge , sorta makes you wonder,
What kinda bridge I’m living under,

You say you married for divorce income,
Lady you surely picked a Bum,

I ain’t had a job just yet,
So there ain’t nothing you can get,

Since unemployed I’ve always been,
I have nothing for you to win,

But you my lady with a job to show,
Alimony works both ways you know!
Oops!

I had to laugh. Or cry. When a woman is romantically inclined, she wishes to be entwined in marriage. But that requires some compromise, and sometimes, downright greed.

But it looks like in this poem, you are getting even by having a poor fella be broke.
