Happy Families
“We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful what we pretend to be.” — From Mother Night, Kurt Vonnegut
Published on Facebook,
a happy deal of cards,
a knave-free life,
for his re-fixed wife,
whilst we looking ‘Likers’
know the truth –
no honest comments,
because that’d be rude:
We transmit our pleasure,
but rarely the pain,
eighteen-rated marriages
are never Facebook-explained.
