have a special friend---

a third party between themselves &

any conversation or action,

who resides in the sky.

have a special friend---

who they can read about in

books of fiction written by others who

needed that special friend in order to

validate any conversation or action

which they might have or do,

by residing in the sky.

have a special friend---

who listens when they cry, who backs

them when they shout,

who acts as a third party

for others using this same excuse

to gather & pretend

together,

as grown adults in a kindergarten setting,

hoping one day to reside in the sky

with it.

have a special friend---

who gets used as a subtle excuse

when they murder, when they rape, when they

steal, when they burn & destroy

anyone or anything in their path &

when they praise it after doing so,

all others who pretend with them

believe in their hearts that if said special friend

allowed it to be,

then of course it was “good.”

have a special friend---

and they will remain that way

until someone holds them accountable.
