the vulgar wife
doesn't brush her teeth
or comb her tangled hair
she stays away
from mirrors
I don't feel good today
she cries across a crumpled bed,
fetch me my cane
I need more gohan
and don't be late again
he never complains
yet looks forward to the day
when elegant wife returns -
this will never happen
vulgar wife ate her long ago
