Spousal Abuse

*the following poem is not written by me.   Please do not notify my wife.  She might take offense!

 

I suffer spousal abuse

it can't be denied

when my wife says Jump

I say how high

she gives me daily instructions 

I'm told how to drive

my salvation, my hearing

thank God is compromised!
