Words of humor and wisdom why is it I continually fly too high or to close to the flame. Never understanding which is my lane or the league in which I belong.
A very fun read and nicely done!

\"Molding reality into metaphors\" is cool but \"hospitality in brutality\" takes the damn cake! Nice rhythm and mouthfuls of words!

This poem has a sharp, satirical edge, it plays with irony while touching on themes of insecurity, relationships, and social judgment. Love the Rhyme of life / wife gives it a catchy, memorable sound.
Paradox / Irony; It suggests happiness comes from marrying someone society might consider โ€œundesirable,โ€ which flips expectations. Satire is humorously critiques shallow standards of attraction and relationship insecurity. Honestly shocking, but nicely written.

But women worship bravery, and she loves a powerful man and a man wants beauty....

Soren, this lands with biting humor and bitter truth. The rhymes cut sharp, mocking how love gets twisted into status and appearance. That closing turn sticks hardโ€”dark, witty, and honest. ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ› Truthfully, the script could be flipped to men picking the \"right\" woman. Either way, the satire works and if it rubs a few the wrong way...so be it. That\'s what satire is for! A must fave from me.

I enjoy your sense of humor in the morning it made me chuckle! ๐Ÿ˜‚
The poem revolves around the notion of security in relationships. It suggests that marrying someone who is not conventionally attractive (an \"ugly wife\") or financially poor can lead to a more stable and less complicated relationship. The poem implies that such choices can help avoid jealousy, insecurity, and societal pressures. It focuses on unconventional views of love and marriage, challenging societal norms regarding beauty and wealth.

Dear, Soren,

Now I know why my wife married me, and there was I, thinking I was handsome. A poem full of sound advice though never given, rendered forth with dollops of humour and awkward truths.

Wishing you all the best,

Tony.

oh YES, how different and yet so same. The common misery of the poets, the way we pour it into our pages, this is beautiful.

Agree with all you say and the way you said it.
Fine Poem.
Also I never understood when Bugs Bunny came out of a Shower; he had a Towel draped around his waist; when usually he wore nothing at all. But that\'s something else.

I would definitely agree with the \"borrower,\" sense. It\'s the idea that no story is wholly original, only borrowed parts and memories. As for the rest: well written and an enjoyable read!

Tony Grannell said:

... and nakedness in the arts is accepted, Soren. Weather plays a large part in culture of modesty just as much as religion does. Impropriety is in the eye of the beholder depending on society. How you have composed this poem is a wonder. Eight lines and so much therein. Excellent!

Fond regards,

Tony.

The intention behind the poem appears to be a meditation on the complexities of the creative process, revealing the emotional weight that accompanies artistic expression. It serves as both a personal reflection and a commentary on the broader human experience of searching for meaning amidst chaos.

The line โ€œOur soul undressed in our eyes\" brings in only one question. Is there a relationship between physical nudity and psychological nakedness? Somehow I felt being naked was not hard but baring one\'s mind was a challenge. Perhaps it\'s an aside. Great poem. Thank you
