She digs in with her shovel mouth and speaks untruths of you and I this woman you love this woman you left your life for and you feed her fodder for her shovel to feed your own ego the two of you caught up in your lies and deceit and I unwillingly become your scapegoat a web trapped bug your little monkey in the middle and three’s a crowd so you keep her hungry for your words for the sake of your pride for your inadmission of who you really are Go live in your opalescent dreams your never never lands your fantasy farms I’ve moved out long ago ducked out untangled myself tired of midwifing your ego I am still I am quiet humbled by my reality grabbing, holding on to that which is real, honest and true
OMG Debra, this is what I had said about my mother, who threw me away, literally, to state authority. Then lied about the reason, but bragged ashe had a son. What she didn't wish to admit was, she never had a son, but a daughter in a male body. She never loved, cared or showed affection. Thnx for sharing Debra, this is so true. May the Lord Jesus bless you and yours, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

Good job of stating your position with dignity, Debi, in the face of a great deal of spitting on holy matrimony that has been going on here for some time in the name of "love" and "poetry." The only writing worth reading comes from character and integrity, in my humble opinion.
A poem telling really what is going on in straight up talk and words. A different approach, but done in a voice that is compelling and believable. Good Work. Henry
