The Love Affair Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

The Love Affair



The road that leads to a smallish agricultural flatland has
two walls. One wall was built by a slob, just throwing
one stone on top of another.

The other wall was built by a craftsman where stones
fitted and he had used decorative and white painted
cement between them.

Every Sunday the meticulous man walks to his wall
and find great satisfaction to see his work again and
wishes the slob would rebuild his wall.

Every Sunday the layabout goes for a walk to,
first to the bar for a few beers with his mates; he walks
to the good man's house and have sex with his wife.
