| Aware that her husband is hard at hearing, she likes to whisper to the numbskull and leaves inaudible messages on his phone, especially if really important. Aware that his wife of seven years has OCD, he is still annoyed to no end when the crazy nag screams into his hearing aid: why is water in the kitchen sink again?! |  (Artwork: Toni Verkruysee) |

Frankly, I wanted to have a little fun with the woke people but decided Christmas is coming so let’s be nice. Starting January, no holds barred.

What a happy couple! I like the way you've written it with the repetition of 'aware'. Works well. Comments are closed.

PoetryThis is the section where fiction prose becomes something else. We still expect the poems to be short, though – sonnets, perhaps, or around that length at the very most. Please feel free to comment (nicely!) on any poems – writers appreciate it.
Just at the moment, though, we're moderating some of them so there might be a slight delat before they appear.
