I see the world as an existential threat
but it’s okay

If you cannot relate to this you do not know me
the years of friendship

Only paper and words I understand you may not understand
but I cannot understand why

In this way I know you in a way you do not know me
yet no better

This is why I always wear a rueful smile tell a joke
to pull laughter from your gut if only for a moment

It seems then we are true to one another we do understand
and though such good times roll on by

They form a long silver chain
stretching beyond limits of our mutual horizons
