Our coats are almost the same They keep us comfortable, colored Safely there, yes? Different zippers, different things Holding each of us together And similar but distinct Colors, more red in mine and Blue in yours, but Our coats are almost the same Pockets for thoughts you don't want to Open until later Hoods for hiding, sleeves for hiding Insecurities Mine has a hole, and as far as I know Yours does not Our coats are not the same And that's good Reservations at a fancy table in an Alright restaurant play out our words And the jackets remain on our chairs as we Leave, preoccupied with conversation
