Sonnet 31

Our couples sex ed. should explore a heart's

Function when the libido spark's gone dead:

What to do when the private laydee parts

Wish they could just be dead and buri'ed.

No cougar  over forty sheds a tear

(She can't bear to face hubby's gimlet eye,

It's when she wants peace that's apt to appear)

Shamelessly giving him the headache lie.

There's just the one place where man love can live,

Home of primal urges that won't be  gone.

Once everywoman, I've nothing to give -

And who wants to live on memories alone?

    Too long a marriage mixes "I" with thee -

    I'm not sure who's lost most patience with me.
