As the argument unfolded
he sputtered and clanked,
like a cold radiator
cranking up the heat.
Twiglet Prompt #5: “cold radiator.” A twiglet is a short phrase. Or a word. Maybe two. Its aim is to “prompt” a flow. A thought. The idea is to create a poem or piece of prose using the twiglet as the jumping off point – the shorter the better! New twiglet prompts appear each Tuesday — join the fun!

Don’t forget hissing, gurgling and thunking. 🙂
P.S. Your crankng is missing the I… unless that is intentional to show there is no ‘I’ in marriage, only ‘wife’.
