Wish

No matter what you THINK you know about me,
based on whatever ridiculous criteria you've concocted ...

Whatever good things

you wish for,

I wish for you, too.

I am the same me I have been

for what feels, sometimes, like 100 years.

Loyal, loving, slightly loony,

occasionally roaring, punny, poetic,

and completely, beautifully,

imperfectly messy.
