 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan

I  looked in her eyes
They read true love
only She was reading
travel Advertizements
I looked on her ring finger
It read married
I Whispered in her ear
She smiled
must have been gas
Looked further
Hearing aid turned off
Looked at her feet
Shoes read expensive
Her jewerlry
Costume purchased
Checked out her reading habits,
"How to murder your Husband!"
Checked out her files
Recently purchased Antifreeze
Looked on my Calendar
57h anniversary in November
Looked back in her eyes
They read, "You better buy me a gift"
Looked in my walllet
Nearly Empty
I  made an important decision
I am going to stop looking
in her eyes
and have the car readied for Winter
If she buys more antifreeze
Whatever the girl wants
she gets!
I am the man of family
total control
dumb maybe but not stupid
