I make friends easily

 I make friends easily
 
 in my head. They are
 perfectly symmetrical
 and like Jethro Tull.
 Their favorite foods
 are easy to prepare,
 and do not include
 vinegar, capers, or pork.
 We are in a band together,
 but it’s better than you think.
 They know how to properly
 maintain a beard, and tell me.
 When it is their birthday
 I see them and say,
 “Happy Birthday,” before
 Facebook tells me to.
 They live in large houses
 and invite me to stay
 on weekends. We play
 strip poker and we’re all
 cool with it. They have pools
 and I swim in them
 (the pools). I hold my breath
 and sink to the bottom,
 opening my eyes. The water
 is clear. I look up through it
 and the sun is not blinding.
