      2. That’s a thought-provoking question, Matt. I think I’m a fan… My poem is about not needing a formal ceremony to secure a constant loving bond. I’m against possession. The slave gold rings were a nod to Roman slaves who wore rings to show they were owned.

  6. Well that’s a slap in the face to his wife, who I assume has the gold slave ring and is probably doing his laundry as I type! lol
