Today by Wolfgang Carstens

today,

i texted my wife
to let her know
i was bringing
home some milk

but
autocorrect
changed it
to milf.

i discovered
the error
when she messaged me back
asking if the milf
was hot
and should she
send the kids
to the neighbors
for the night.

see,
that's why i love her.

it's also
the main reason
our marriage
has lasted 26 years.

she's always
willing to try
something

new.
