No--this is not about me...although I must admit that I know a few women who have ended up like this...LOL!

The first time I first realized
I needed to be married
Was the first time
The plumbing didn’t work.

My second pass
Was when the furnace broke
And the repairman had the pants
That showed the crack.

My final hint
Was when my mother said,
'You’re looking old now
Better act before it’s too late'…

So I found a willing candidate
Didn’t care if it was love
He had a decent job,
Could fix the things that broke.

The only problem is
He expects things in return
Like cooked meals, attention
And romance.

I need a divorce.

A good poem -- all too true for some, though. I once overheard a woman in a doctor's office telling her friend she was marrying a man so she didn't have to be alone any more ... very stoooopid.
Excellent poem.
Love,
CJ

Not all that funny, although I can see humor in it. This whole marriage thing needs to be revisited at some point in time. But, if a man marries for nefarious reasons, he should have to pay the piper, likewise the women who marry only for a handyman and a bank account. Good, reflective ooem is my take.

I too know a few women who have lived this very life. I work with one who has now divorced for her third time...and guess what she is on the prowl again...look out men everywhere, she not only shops in Kentucky but the net...A comical thought was for these women to ask some of the others that I know whom have been married for more years than thye remember...they might let them borrow there husband...great write...I loved the humor in this one.
Blessings,
