my husband's wife

my husband's wife makes the beds
and  does the laundry simultaneously

she does the shopping and the
ironing, she knows how to use
the vacuum cleaner. She visits

the hairdresser's at a regular
basis, she wears
reasonable clothes 

her golden
wedding ring is matt. She doesn't
really notice
busy with things that never cease
to come

She's raised two kids, has turned 
successful in the kitchen, mastered the art
of folding clothes. She knows life, 
she's attended parties and been on holidays
at different turns
of the year

she celebrates the right 
occasions, 
she's never questioned
her being
happy

my husband's wife is older than me 
I haven't gathered that much experience
in taking part in ordinary life - usually I was
 somewhere else
at the same time she must be much younger 
she hasn't learnt yet how to
disobey, it hasn't turned to her that she could
rebel

She's my husbands wife, I am 
married to her husband, I lead
two lives simultaneously, he doesn't know
I do
I leave it 
like that
