The Wife of An American Insurance Salesman

The Wife of an American Insurance Salesman
David J Walker


Somehow I imagined you
Living in a small town in Maryland 
Where the only person I know
Wouldn’t know you

Somehow I imagined it as
Your parallel life
The wife of an American
Insurance Salesman 

Somehow I Imagined that In some ways 
You loved him but moreover you loved 
the Children you made with an American
Insurance salesman husband

Somehow I think you quietly forget me
And never think or say my name out loud 
Sometimes I think you think of me
And I feel it

Did I Mention
I have nothing against insurance salesmen
My father was one
