3 Times Married, Glad I’m Here (1999)


3 Times Married - drawing by Harvey Dog 2026-04-12 for the 1999 poem "3 Times Married".

good heart,
too weak, too open,
too desperate, too vulnerable,
too trusting, too drunk,
likes the coke, her mom hates her,
lived in Winnipeg for 11 years,
3 times married,
glad I’m here.

me?
too weak, too open,
too desperate, too vulnerable,
too trusting, too drunk,
likes the pot, parents???
lived in Winnipeg for 1 year,
0 times married
glad she’s here.

We’ll end up having sex
and (hopefully) move on
before we hate each other.

July, 1999
