'hi how are you what is new friend' by elf
I know me.
I would have stood frozen for eternity in that airless, sunless chamber of obscure passive aggressive ultimata built entirely of sharp silences accepting all of your defilements, gaslighting, and torture..
just for the chance to find our way back to hi how are you.
I would have let you tell me that I am a solar lamp made of avocado skins,
that I do not need water to live,
that the earth is a tetrahedron but only on third Thursdays,
that oranges are green and apples are blue,
if only we could return to hi how are you what is new friend.
My devotion still could not figure out how to generate.. what'd you call it?
Friendly banter.
Friendly banter with someone with no manners, no respect, only for me, day after day, week after week.
Friendly banter means people are safe enough in the friendship to joke around.
