Married Life

Got the low down useless husband stupid man blues.

‘Don’t use the kids against me’ he says after he says he’s too sick to travel for them.  ‘You only want what’s best for you, what you want’ when I have an assignment due and it’s all planned for weeks.

“Well I just getting some fresh air on a Friday night as I’ve been in all week” he says when only two days ago he was too sick to travel.

‘Send me a hundred pounds for a turn table” he says when I have been turned down for any government assistance and I have no money coming in. He’s all sorted on benefits.

“Why haven’t you phoned me” he says.  I say nothing but my mind screams “Because I can only hate you more with every word you say”
