BookLife Poem: The Wedded We, by Carol O'Day
marriage, shared responsibility, division of duty
The Wedded We
Dishes sink-packed
Trash can overflows
Bills counter-stacked
Laundry begging folds.
Lips pressed, tongue curbed
She must allow him
to grow disturbed.
A visual learner, he,
Needs suffer chaos
to find the wedded ‘we’.
