stronger than dirt


I scrubbed my kitchen floor
with Clorox trying to find
the white the ex-wife hid during
her five years before me I was
tired when I did it My eyes were
watering from the fumes In my
13 years of number two there have
been a lot of messes for me to
clean up But I handled them all
A house A yard Four kids and an
emotionally deprived husband who
withdrew into a distant lover Now
my life is perfect Even the ex-wife
and I are friends Everyone os content
Everyone is friendly But right now
I have a headache from the bleach
