take a bunch of married men or women. give them a few years. a few kids. maybe not. doesn’t matter. and let’s see the results. 

why? because most of my friends are married. and we got to talking as i was curious if their lives changed. for the better. for the worse.

If you think seeing a naked woman
is a disappointment

the tentacles and mouths beneath
her clothes,
you could ponder the bright things
that lurk beneath…
