People are always saying
that we're really cute together
or asking how long we've been together
and saying, "You must be so glad that you two--"
or, "I bet it's nice that he's--"
They send us cards on our anniversary,
congratulatory messages.
They're so proud of our marriage,
always reminding me of how good a choice I made
when I gave in and said yes.
I don't have to agree or disagree,
because they don't give me a chance;
they just barrel on through their happy assumptions,
and all I have to do is keep from
exploding all over the place,
keep from tearing their blind eyes
out of their stupid faces,
ripping the ears that they've shut to me
off the sides of their stupid heads,
and screaming, "THIS RELATIONSHIP IS A LIE".
