hi, be my friend.
You are cordially invited:
A tour of my thoughts. Attend, be attentive. We will perch upon a lofty ledge, swing our feet, conversate. No need to politely RSVP on a monogrammed card. Drift on in at your convenience, out on your whim.
No hors d’oeuvers, no intriguingly earthy wine, But should you tire of me, Remind me to pause, ponder, and listen. Refreshments provided.
Taylor Swift - Safe And Sound

One month we’re telling the world we’re thankful for what we have, the next month we’re telling the world what we want. Then we resolve to change our ways, and it’s the new year.
May your holiday be merry and bright, and your cheer continue regardless of the season. <3
My twenty-something cousin asked what I wanted for Christmas. I told him a poem “about anything.” This is the result, inspired by the perpetually waving maneki neko I got him last year:
“Ode to the Beckoning Cat” They say you are beckoning, But not by my reckoning, Because of your motion, Which is tied to commotion The commotion of concerts, With arms and hands...

it is okay if my friendship is not your cup of tea anymore. i will be disappointed, but i can accept it and still respect you. but you will lose my respect if you pretend to adoreeeeeee me in front of everyone else when our one-on-one interactions are so cold that you could use a witch’s bosom as a hot water bottle.
