for you my Thank Goddess You Finally Arrived But Where Were You When I Was Seventeen??? mate for life miniature Hershey's with no nuts because you're allergic and Rolos and yogurt covered pretzels for your stocking and Ren and Stimpy's More Stinky Stories and that Flash comic book toy thing from Hasting's and boxer briefs because you hate boxers and briefs are out of the question and me naked except for a big red bow under the silver icicle draped tree and for me I want what I already have watching you sleep beside me clutching my dog tags that you have been wearing for two weeks now hearing you talk to yourself in the morning letting me take care of you in small ways running your epsom salt bubblebath before bedtime cooking your Ramen noodles in the single pot we own I am rich in all the ways I wasn't rich before completely sated higher and holier than any goddamn yellow haired angel in white. |
