Let us put a few pages between us Unread, unsaid, unshed Unsoiled if it could be said Likened as if they would stay Empty as the newborn day Unruffled as a Sunday afternoon Too many flavors have spoiled the cook Shape-shifting constituents of exactitude Aplomb with certitude Straight as an arrow Smooth as certainty Singular as perfect pursuit Agaze are you, blue hue Cobalt true and blue Cerulean sometimes soft and clouding Metallic pallet surrounding Hard as steel, Warm as a cold day in May Where analysis paralysis Has you curious Doubting and dubious Calculous and carefulness Left you immaculately scandleless Does it sometimes get so lonely Between the devil and the deep blue sea Have you ever not looked before you leap Do you ever gurgle goo goo’s Before you go go Running in place Going nowhere Never too close Never too base Was it ever not intentional Wrought by incompleteness Messy this neatness Red hot chili sweetness Intense with meetness Hurt and heat compete Will you ever admit defeat This can’t go on I’m ending it here now This is the end My pretend friend I tore up the recipe I’m going to make you over again A pinch of friendly less pretense A dash of vulnerabilities Stir to understanding consistency Deep well cooker piquancy Boil until bubbles break Give and take Friend Skewer to hold shape Then lift with a circular motion More kneading Less bias Low and slow Until tender More me Less you This I can do And so can you I’ve made you anew

My Pretend Friend
