From the Boudoir to the Nest


 

There is a type of social etiquette

an unwritten social code observed by

mating pairs that what begins in the

nest stays in the nest. Intimate instances

of disagreement building into vocal

arguments are best discreetly voiced

for it is no outsider's business to know

what has aggravated her or annoyed

him to loud accusations and tears. Yet

there they perch, assuredly not in their

shared nest and for privacy what better

place than a forest? Yet recriminations

rang out alerting passersby of the stark

disaffection of a mating pair, calling

derisively to one another from tree to

tree exchanging barbs and blame in a

language known to all married couples.

Just Who do you think you are said each.
