When a divorced man marries a divorced woman, there are four people in that marital bed.

This Eternal Marriage
This eternal marriage
It is one of force, of no choice
One of irresistible destiny
How can we get divorced forever?
This eternal marriage
One gets into long before birth
No escape route from it, no alternative
How can we get divorced forever?
This eternal marriage
Can never be denied, no fugitives
Unborn, born, young, old, man, woman
There is no selection when time comes
How can we get divorced forever?
This eternal marriage
The undeniable beckon of the husband
During the day, the night, at any time
Medical technologies notwithstanding
How can we get divorced forever?
This eternal marriage
It is indeed the mother of all sufferings
The river of tears never run dry
The broken hearts never get mended
The gaps of those called are never refilled
How can we get divorced from this cruel marriage?

Maybe it's because my mother divorced and my grandmother divorced, so maybe I'm frightened deep down. But then I also feel there is no real need. Why do I need to get married? To reassure me? No I don't need reassurance.

I wish we'd never got divorced. He and I both wish we'd never got divorced, but we did. I wish I could go back and be the bride again, but I can't.

I was married awfully young and I felt trapped. My wife had been divorced and all the time we were married we were out of the Church. It wasn't until we were divorced that we became good Catholics again.
The Swan I Married Became a Moose
Crusted mustard breath,
I awakened to...
When I loved you.
String beans on your teeth,
I thought divine.
One time.
But when we got divorced,
I forced myself to really see...
How the Swan I married,
Became a Moose!
A big and wide behind,
I didn't mind to follow.
I thought it fantastic,
To climb on top.
When we made our version,
Of love.
But when we got divorced,
I forced myself to really see...
How the Swan I married,
Became a Moose!
I saw you recently,
I did not recognize you.
My eyes laid on your breasts,
And hips so fine.
But then you reminded me,
Of my ignorance.
And what that did to you.
You then left me looking stunning!
And I felt such the fool!
Crusted mustard breath,
I awakened to...
When I loved you.
String beans on your teeth,
I thought divine.
One time.
But when we got divorced,
I forced myself to really see...
How the Swan I married,
Became a Moose!
And that 'moose' today...
I wish I had not abused!
'Wow, dude?
WHO was that gorgeous woman you tried to hit on?
She's hot! '
That 'was' my ex-wife!
'Yeah, right.
Then one of us is a big liar.
You told me your ex-wife
Could be a side attraction at a circus! '
That was my ex-wife!
'Okay. Snap out of it! '
That was my ex-wife.
'Man, you okay?
Hey...
We all got our fantasies, right? '
Seriously,
That WAS my ex-wife!

I've never been married, but I tell people I'm divorced so they won't think something's wrong with me.

In the end, my pursuit of the elusive New York State driver's license became about much more than a divorced woman's learning to drive for the first time.

Being A Couple
Remarried, divorced or widowed,
A woman equally loves the new one.
Premarital sex will have no bearing.
Identity will take care of the couple.

When two divorced people marry, four people get into bed.
The way they were writing Christine as this older woman who got married, which she shouldn't have. Obviously got divorced right away. Reached the glass ceiling in the police precinct. So there is a part of her that died because she knows she couldn't go any farther.

For Him
She was a
Sexy doll
For him -
When he
Courted her.
She was a
Fairy princess
For him -
When he
Wedded her.
She turned a
Legal whore
For him -
When he
Bedded her.
She became a
Bruised woman
For him -
When he
Abused her.
Finally,
She became a
Behenji for him
When he
Divorced her.
The cycle still
Continues…
He searches for
New avenues…
To entrap another
Woman to replace her.
As they say,
Marriages are
Made in heaven,
And broken in
Hell.

All is fair in love
I deserted the girl I loved
To marry the one selected.
I married the girl I loved
And left my parents in lurch
Which is correct?
Rejected by the girl I loved,
I remained single throughout.
I abandoned the girl I loved
To love another found better.
Which is right?
I divorced and married.
I indulge in extra marital sex.
I flirt with other women as often.
I visit for novelty brothel houses.
Which is justified?
In a bi-sexual love
There is no God’s rule
Other than attraction
For consummation.

Sexual energy does
Having loved many severally,
Man and woman marry and live happily.
Having divorced their spouses willingly,
Man and woman marry and live happily.
Having affairs with some concurrently,
Husband and wife enjoy their sex squarely.
It is possible for them to be so
For they abound in sexual energy.

Since I Am Single, Divorced AND Live Alone
Since I am single, divorced AND live alone,
To love every moment of it.
I am 'suppose' to have the sexual appetite,
Of a gutter whore.
I am 'suppose' to have anybody and anything,
Coming in and out of my front and back door.
AND...have issues with drugs and/or alcohol.
Because my loneliness sickens me,
And I numb my head to get away from it all.
I do admit...
Of having 'had' experimented sexually.
Being the only one on Earth to have ever done this.
And know how to roll a 'joint' to perfection.
I am 'higher' without doing that than I have ever been.
I 'might' open a bottle of beer to finish it the next day.
However...
Today,
And for many years...
My life would bore the probings of a Pope.
No joke.
There are more things going on in places,
Where people go to pray...
I would 'never' think about doing in my wildest dreams.
And my neighbors when they see me ask,
'Where have you been? We don't see you anymore! '
I respond with the deepest of shared respect...
'I am either writing, exercising or meditating.'
And even they raise an eyebrow.
As if I lie.
Even my doctors when I visit,
Seem to be over excited to examine me.
I do not exaggerate.
Since I am single, divorced AND live alone,
To love every moment of it.
I sometimes get a bit reluctant to admit,
I can not be more happier.
And that is 'legit'.
I don't have to be bothered to have a single argument,
Even with myself.
AND...
I refuse to feel guilty when I am sitting alone,
Enjoying every bit of my peace.
I 'know' I am deserving,
Because I have earned every dropp of it...
I will not resist.
Since I am single, divorced AND live alone,
To love every moment of it.
I am 'suppose' to have the sexual appetite,
Of a gutter whore.
And since I don't...
I don't imagine that anymore.
And when someone comes to knock on my door?
I KNOW they are looking for someone else.
'You've got TOYS don't you?
You have got to have TOYS.'
NO! I do not.
And just what kind of 'toys' do you imply I have?

Let It Drop
You were married at eighteen and,
You had your first child at nineteen;
But you were divorced at twenty!
So try to learn from your mistakes in this world.
Let it dry on me and let me learn from your mistakes,
With interactions and experiences to guide me on;
For it is the passionate love of nature tha draws me to you,
And like what occurred to you in those days.
Genetic disposition,
The first was like a lion!
But i am here to heed to your demand,
And like a quality sounds-system playing love tunes.
There are twelve hours with the daylight,
But you were married earlier and divorced earlier too!
So take a graphic details about your past and,
Learn more from your pelvic exercises.
Let it dropp and let me learn,
For the Golden Stool is a symbol of deity;
But this early divorce should rather teach you for the better,
For you are still young.

Hurts and shortfalls
Man marries the woman he desires.
Woman desires the man she marries.
It is the fate of marriage thrust.
Tolerance wipes out hurts and shortfalls.
