Connubiality    

The male of the species stinks of pride
and that is just no way to go through life
when humility may just fetch a wife
whose thoracic glory can't be denied...
but of greater value is her rare mind
and a psyche with much to recommend
through the evolution of friend on friend
in the logistics of the marriage grind.

And just how might we place a value on that
when folks are so hung up on the dollar
as the major misery forestaller
in a man's search for where to hang his hat?

Fret no more about a lottery win
when a happy spouse will cure the chagrin!
