You are my little Sis
and you are
friend
We share memories
You,
clobbering me,
(in the head)
with the mini-golf putter, and
we scared Farmor
to death (it WAS a lot of blood)
Of sleepless nights on summer visits
to Sweden, where there are no screens
so no air
in that hot bedroom
And the mattresses kept
sliding, and we would
froggie-hop them
back next to each other
to whisper-giggle
in the semi-darkness
secrets
And all it takes
Is one word,
And a look,
Then we're in the same place
like
Bianca and Margo
or
death-grip, as
production assistant
or
Ray-Don
And even though
we've been through
“totally s#$t times”
love actually
lasts
because
You are my little sis
and you are
friend
It's my sis's birthday today. She's amazing, and puts up with me, and is always there to help me out, to make my infirmities less crippling, and to cheer me on, to listen, and to lean on. Sissie, your Swissie loves you. Come home soon.
