/// Mrs. Skeffington wed by arrangement.
Loveless marriage would lead to estrangement.
All the critics applaud
actors Bette and Claude,
(she was so good portraying derangement).

// She craved laudanum (it was was reputed).
That he peddled it was undisputed.
If to him she had toadied,
the girl wouldn’t have O.D.’d;
he’d have made sure that it was diluted.

/// The Argument ended in deadlock;
they’re joined, not by love, just by wedlock.
If he swallowed his pride
and knelt down by her side,
he knew he’d end up in a headlock.

/// She was furious that he would lie.
Turned away, not to spit in his eye.
Her instinctive reaction:
Give him no satisfaction,
and whatever you do, do not cry!

/// She refused to speak after they fought.
Thinking silence would make him distraught.
It was not a good choice.
He could not stand her voice,
so his “punishment” soon came to naught.

/// He complained that her spending’s excessive.
She replied that on sex, he’s obsessive.
Their most violent fighting
came to words which are biting;
they are, both of them, passive aggressive.
