salute
you're beautiful
wonderful
everything i want is what your loving other has
ten to one that nothing changes for the best
hundred to one that i won't notice if it does
i don't know the meaning of giving up
i'm not a toggle switch
i can't turn it off
i can do my best to keep it secret
dishonesty
a noble cause i suppose
ask me how being noble feels sometime
i'll tell you a thousand stories
and quiz you on them
the cliff notes haven't been published yet
they're not practical
they're not an adequate representation
just ask me
i'll punch you in the nose
and hastily blame your accusations
for my reaction
then slap you with a glove
and say "we'll either die now, or know the fear that goes with it"
