What I Did
when my wife, my soul mate, told me
she was a lesbian
I didn't give her a hug
I didn't send her flowers
I didn't take her to dinner
I didn't call her my Valentine
I didn't throw a party
I didn't dance a jig
I didn't sing a song
I didn't pop open the champagne
I didn't serve the caviar
what I did is
get out of Dodge
before I killed someone
--Charles Deemer
"The struggle itself ... is enough to fill a man's heart." --Camus
