                     buddy was unable to resist trying to irritate him with acronyms

long ago he learned to meet horseshit with his best corpseface  unflinching   blowflies crawling over it

he repeated himself evidently his corpsefeign wasnt gooddidnt convince him he was deaddeaf

what were they talkin about just prior

                                         he was a little high  helped him fake death 

   yes

buddys undying hardon for a woman he was seeing that dealt him a sheaf which hed describe as dealkillers  that he candidly refused to acknowledge

                                     I don’t know that.   You an idiot

he gave idiocy a face

buddy was defending her in his wildest dreams he hoped he was being facetious defending how she replied to difficult interfaces with others

                      W W J D

Youre really crediting her

Come on, smart, a step back, she’s able to step away, buy herself time . . allow herself uncontended breathing room.

To the situation you described   

   Yes.

No

     She sentient  She ought to know without taking a step back a breath  I cant imagine in her experience she hasnt contended with similar parallel applicable circumstances something shes handled prior  Ought to be on the tip of her tongue

        Or like yourself  forgetful

Faulty long term memory

Do you have to insult her?

You have to use some bizarre acronym shes madeup or assumedshared with you  that for reasons know only to yourself you use despite knowing Im utterly uninterested

majority of his life

                     the people he loved most he had long distance relationships with

because he left

they stayed

                 he had a hard time believing they stayed

could understand his parents

their youth was during a different time a different world

his mothers parents were immigrants his fathers parents parents immigrated

they were steeped in Old World

                                  steeped

in profession of Family

                         traveled by car never left the United States

growingup he was steeped alike

but by the time he exited the teabag he was had been depleted  smelled tasted like hot water

he left to replenish himself

he had to admit

                      he did an excellent job

he visited

           but

he knew when he left that the people he loved most hed have long distance relationships with

the house phone rang

he put down his pen no distractions

                                      Hey Maw Yes  Good evening   How are you
