SIR MITCH

Folder: 
JOURNAL#18

he is my tender tyrant

Svenghali would be proud

that night made us closer

than our normal closeness

my weakness was allowed to

rest quietly against his

great strength

and since then his weakness

a time or two has rested

itself against my strength

and that made him my truest

closest confidant

he's like having a well heeled

pit bull for a best friend

he's a priceless treasure of

a prince

he tells me he'll guard all of

my secrets with his life

and tuck them gently away beneath

his enormous pride

in a previous life he must have

been a knight of Sir Richard The

Lion Hearted 's round table

well long love and live my dear

'Sir Mitch'

he would kill me if I called him

that to his face

or worse yet

he would never take me to

Baskin and Robbins ever again

he has threatened this threat a

great many times before............
