when DOGE comes to your house

i tell my wife
that from this point forward we're
going to have
a team
from DOGE
come into the house and audit
our books.
we have to find
a way
to cut costs and trim
unnecessary spending.
we need
a strict budget.
i mean, do you really need
two Grande lattes everyday
from Starbucks,
a new pair of shoes
every month,
a massage and a manicure
every week?
you buy something everyday
that we don't
need on Amazon.
the garage is full of unopened
boxes.
she stares at me
and gasps.
if you do this, i'm leaving,
she says.
i'm out of here and i'm taking
my cat with me.
fine, i tell her,
problem solved.
