victim status

when
your ex wife
filed
for official
victim status
from the U. N.,
seeking help
for all her
troubles
and woes,
it didn't
surprise you
one bit.
nor did
the phone call
at three a.m.
when she bumped
into a bar bell
you left
behind nine years
ago, breaking
her toe.
how could you
do this to me,
she said.
it never ends
with you, does it?
