1702 - Everlasting divorce

It's taken months to sort out my divorce
A simple affair, I've been there before
Arranged it myself, no need for lawyers
But this ex wanted a consent order
And that's what's cost us. The solicitor
Has been slow, inefficient and costly
There's no dispute over assets or care
Of children, so we're not quite sure how he
Has dragged it on so long, but legally
He knows more than we, so we can't enforce
A smaller bill or prove that he's been poor
At his job. Caught by the short and curly
Hairs, we must pay up for these pointless wars
Of paper and email, but how long for?
