I like how you play with alaysha And help your brother with his homework That you are patient with me And that you see the beauty in your mother That you'll make breafast and reteach me algebra That you'll wait all week to play a silly game
I love how you let the world roll off your shoulders And how you tend to forget old inconveniences
I roll my eyes but I'm glad you like Dragonball and silk jackets and your friends' hiphop That you point out food process machinery wherever we go And know the model of every car on the street
I'm relieved you'll laugh at a bad pun Let me ride shotgun, send a pic of a pug with a manbun
Dear Shueyfufu-- Keep wearing your earrings, Be nerdy, be hood Be Mexican and Tech all at once Live in the Mission and hold back when the documentaries ask you to be angry about gentrification Buy expensive mango whipped cream cakes from Dianda's Ride a bike seat too high in Golden Gate Park Make the sun and grass in Dolores our Sunday chapel Think about right and wrong and God and Black Mirror society
Have mixed feelings about knock-off street clothes Get upset that sports wear and vinyl are popular again That underground artists aren't so underground That it's "milennial" to hate the gap between the rich and the poor And that battery technology is a trending dream career
Superglue your glasses together repeatedly Squeal when my hands and feet or the toilet seat are too cold Smile with your squinty asian eyes that aren't asian
Watch Bob's Burgers with me And be upset everytime you realize I watched it without you Sing "Yesterday" in the car and Vampire Weekend Play old jazz songs and Chance and Selena Show me music videos from Calle 13 and Danny Brown Watch cooking shows and Vice News and Travel Vlogs Ask Alexa if she loves you and ask her to play December 1963 in the kitchen Tell me she's listening to everything and advertising to us based on our conversations Give me motivation to read 1984 Laugh at slapstick gifs and blankly stare at dry British humor
Let's exclaim "Orale, ****" and complain like Brandon, "Ugh no one understands me" Let's take Ah to the Kawaii store so she can waste money on Squishies Let's make Brandon try more asian food and show him anime he hasn't seen Let's dance with your mom at parties and take pictures of her all dressed up Let's play Clue and Forbidden Island and never play monopoly or the game of life ever again Let's buy Mario Sunshine and Rock Band and a fancy bidet and eat at michelin star restaurants Let's save a bunch of money and all go to Hawaii
Thank you for loving a golden retriever For all the head rubs, food, and walks Just don't expect me to run without a reward
