in your best interest

the first question my
lawyer asked
when filing for divorce
was how much money
did i make and i said,
why, what does that
matter. he answered
with a smile. i need
to know when it runs
out so that we can
wrap it up and call it
a day. of course it's
in the best interest
of all parties concerned,
he said, oh and for
your son too.
the gleam from his
jewelry was like looking
into the sun and injured
both my retinas.
