My
wife is smarter than I am
I hate to admit it but
it's true
Nevertheless I try to hide
the fact from her
I don't want to admit it
especially in front of her
because it would take away
any remaining pride I have left
so I bluff my way around
and act like I know what I'm talking about
even make some stuff up
if I think it will add to my stature
or give me some standing
in this business of marriage
I am good with this
since it gives me leeway to screw up
I give her advise but then let her make the call
that way if anything goes wrong
she gets the blame
this is the perfect situation
as far as I'm concerned
because I get out of making hard decisions
and she is happy
being boss
she is the 1st chair trumpet
I am the second fiddle
together we make beautiful music.
