Wife is a four letter word


by Dulce Maria Menendez


And so is home.
And so is cash.
And so is bird.
But that is neither
here nor there
because it is 
always flying.
And so is nest.
And so is gate.
And so is shut.
And if you add an s
to three letter words
you get dogs
and cats and kids
and so is pies 
because you 
have to eat.
And so is stay.
And so is gone.
And so is stop.
And so is work.
And so is life.
And so is dead
because who 
knows how 
much time
we really have
And so is left. 
And so is back.
And so is here.
And so is blue.
And so is shit.
And so is fuck.
And this is where it 
gets complicated
because so is love.
