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.
