Marya Mannes Quote

How many wives does your husband have?
My husband, he has three:
One at the office, one in dreams
And me.
How many wives does your husband have?
My husband, he has two:
The imagined woman he married and The true.
How many wives does your husband have?
My husband, he has none:
He's wed to money. That makes less
Than one.
