Oh my.

A domestic engineer wrapped up inside a 'Lady Chatterbox'. D.H. Lawrence would be mortified. I wonder how many hubbies have such a sweet combination for a wife. Oops, don't answer guys, you may get cutoff.

Although the repetitious phrasing and rhythm in this poem illustrates the endless nagging discussed in it, I think a little less would have brought a lot more to the table. Still a good poem and I really enjoyed the read.

Worries, nags, frets, and complains. Normally, repetition doesn't work but here it's an excellent device for revealing the male's perspective. She may be venting but he, in true male-brain reaction, tunes it out as a distraction. Well done.
