I put a different version of this on instagram. I changed it by swapping the original last two lines, and then adding the last line. Adding that last line completely changed the message! Read it without the last line, then read it again with the last line. It goes from someone listing good habits over bad ones, to a poem of someone complaining that they cannot do the good things because their wife drives them to do the bad things! Language is amazing! I am also curious if anyone reads this differently than I do. Also, wife can be replaced with husband, girlfriend, boyfriend or Ford. Wife just rhyme and I like to do that all the time!

Now the poem called ‘I like’

I like
writing more than fighting
thinking more than drinking
dreaming more than sleeping
hoping more than coping
reading more than streaming
living more than sitting
life with little strife
so why the fuck do I have a wife?
