Get Yourself

Get yourself a:

Co-mate,
A partner in exile
Who’ll walk, bike, and run with you,
Until the last mile.

A tattle-tale,
Tear-weaponizer!
Who steals the remote,
Then plays none the wiser.

A navigator!
A co-pilot
On missions to Mars

Who’ll dive under cars
Then lookout for the stars.

In other words,

A confidant
A role model and powerhouse
An artist, an expert
A teacher,

A friend for the summer,
Spring and the winter
And Fall too, though sometimes
He’ll bother.

But far and away,
He’ll be like no other

There’s no better way, so
Get yourself a brother.
