the early morning tiff

i hear
the neighbors arguing
in the morning.
what is it this time?
did he leave
the seat up, or leave
the butter out
all night on the counter.
did she overspend
the money
on things they don't
need,
will they ever take
that vacation to Italy,
or is it
the beach again
this year?
she asks in a muted
scream,
ah, love and marriage.
such a wonderful
thing.
