i met a new friend.
we get along pretty well.
one day, we were walking through ikea
and he called me a train-wreck
and laughed.
he probably thought that he had said it in a way
that was convincingly facetious
(joking.
but there was a note in his voice
that made me realize
he was, in fact, serious.
and i still don't know him well enough
to tell him
that no one has ever found a more accurate word
to describe me
