Circumstances have brought my wife and me to the USA this week. The customs at Newark airport recognized our marriage status and let us come in together even though I’m not a US citizen.
Meanwhile, there’s a chance that the infamous DOMA may be repealed, which would be a step towards our right to live together in my wife ‘s country of origin, should we wish to.
However, it seems that chance is getting smaller.
Catch up, Supreme Court. As the lovely gentleman at border control put it, “Marriage is marriage.”
(After all that, it’s just a haiku today)
How can you tell us
That this isn’t the right time?
It’s time for our rights
