Men and Their Ways

You never cease to amuse me.

You are charming and impossible.

So many types of brotherhood.

All my brothers are the funny type.

I like to watch you step outside of the software.

You are so much better than my birth brothers.

You are funnier. Faster. Who said you can't choose your family.

I choose you. You have the wink. The laugh.

You aren't afraid of doom or how low the limbo pole is.

You make it under.

I marvel and laugh.

I sleep with you

and with the memory of you

I will sleep finally.

How easy my brothers were with me.

How kind we were to each other.

So unlike the kindred type.

So much you give that letting go

is nothing. I am brothered.

Happy. You won't be there when I leave.

But you were.

So well. So truly.

Thank you so much.

Such love I feel and no possession.

I who was so possessed.

Always.
