People Getting Divorced By Lawrence Ferlinghetti

        In  the poem "People Getting Divorced " by Lawrence Ferlinghetti the poet made the reader see  divorce through the eyes of the spouse. He used the poem to explain the way the spouse feels , the way they think , and  impact divorce have on the people involved. Lawrence Ferlinghetti made a comparison between divorce and loosing one of your pairs of shoes . In a way it makes perfect sense since people say marriage is like discovering your other half then divorce must feel like loosing your other half.
