It’s been two years
Since I was your husband
And yet you still talk
To me
On the phone
With your usual belligerence
How I don’t do this
Don’t do that
All
Revolving around money
I wasn’t a bad husband
I just had you for a wife
Never hit you
Adored the ground you walked
On
Was never drunk around
Our kids
Tucked them in every night
With
‘I love yous...
‘You’re a part of me...
‘I’m a part of you...
Now gone
Because you turned into
A Christian Demon
Donating our money
Without telling me
And now you’re asking
For more
Like we’re still
Married to each other
‘You can’t divorce me again’
I tell her
‘I’ll give you an extra $30
‘If you say ‘I DON’T OWN YOU! ANYMORE!’
She tells me to go **** myself
And hangs up
As I go get a $30 bottle of wine
For the night...
