Two for the price of one this month, from Wendy Cope.

Loss

The day he moved out was terrible -
That evening she went through hell.
His absense wasn’t a problem
But the corkscrew had gone as well.

Which puts me in a worse-than-usual fix.
No woman ever stood a chance with Houseman
And he’s been dead since 1936.
