Yes, yes, yes
Adam Graupe
I once knew a man who was unhappily married
for twenty years.
They had two kids
during the first two years of marriage.
Things soured.
He did not want to pay child support and alimony
so he waited, brooded, and planned.
The day came when the youngest child turned 18
and he filed the divorce papers.
Within a month he married a woman.
She looked,
behaved
and even dressed
identically to his ex wife.
We are all guilty of it,
running from one problem to another
our whole lives.
The judge asked him the usual questions
“Yes, yes, yes” answered the groom
“I do.”
