she gave him a jigsaw puzzle for his birthday

                                             a fabulously coloured onethousand piece hummingbirds puzzle

he had no where to build it

had cats

            curiositycats curiosity destroys things inadvertently without blame  they are animals guided by their innate gifts

                  unlike

human beings 

                who

endup having to make excuses for theirs

not he

           punished as a boy for saying  You can blow me

parents threw a tizzy

                       until

he informed them what blow meant

                                      How do you know that? they demanded

his curiosity would always outstep outdistance their bizarreneed to protect him

   tha occurred to him

before it occurred to them

a funny smile curled inside his mouth he did not share it

                                                                 Yacant protect me

his words hit like hammer blows

he was the eldest six siblings

                                    he had a sense

I can understand why you might

                                   But you cant    Tha doesnt diminish you in my eyes

Yajust cant

An Ill not pullback on being who I am

If I coud apologise I woud

                              I cant

  Was a really beautiful puzzle

          if he was in conversation or happened at the edge of a one that made a point of inviting interlopers he  actively listened   and when that miserable pearlRIGHT drops  hes rude

hes usually the sole individual not noddingagreeing to their Right?

as young adults they were more among their peers than him

So your streaming brain like streaming video bingeing programs hasty acts impulsive ac . .

. . Running to meet trouble not running away every hills a hill to die on

    Yes.

               Took the words out of my mouth.

Youd have gotten there

                           Whas your question

You neednt beat around the bush  

Ask

Were you ever tested as a child?

I was continually tested as a child Though not in the manner I believe youre asking

How do you mean, tested?

Suffice to say   Adults

                         No matter who we didnt see eye to eye   An not because I was shorter

I was short he smiled  looked a little perverse

    Short?

Yah

Were impatient?

Yah

With adults?

Yah

 

No. I didn’t mean that kind of testing.

If not  then no

 

    I meant . .

. . Transparent as glass

                            I follow

I was not tested for A  D H D

                               I get tha right

Yes. Attention-deficit Hyperactive Disorder.  A D H D.

Occasionally I get something rightwhich is nice

                                                  Evidently  I prefer learnin the hard waydoin things the hard way  Like a woman might say It has to be hard to be good

As Aerosmith sagely sang  You got to lose to know how to win.

    Do you ever think, wonder, that maybe if you had been tes . .

. . Too late nowNo

Take therapeutic drugs

I understand they help children.

    Later I took drugs

                           Psychedelic ones

Think theyd give children psychedelics

I believe that would be highly improbable, highly inappropriate.

But without tryin

                   How can you believe wha you don know

Need I say  

Wittgenstein

Wittgenstein?

    Youre unfamiliar

a touch miffed

               I am unfamiliar.

Suhweet

           I love turnin people on

 

Wittgenstein?

Whereof you do not know thereof  you should be silent

I then . think . it would be inappropriate to dose children with psychedel . .

. . But okayotherwise to dump science-tested physician-approved habit-forming pharmacologics dollars the bottomline corporations into children

                                        Maybe like fluoride  In the water supply

Do you want to be serious?

I am serious

               Ive met young adult men who are still taking the meds they took as children

Where?

Anger management

                     

                          What a cash cow money-making gimmick tha is

There. You see.   You’ve proven my point.

Ever attend one

No.

it was unbecomingthrew him for a loop

                                             Whas goin on beautiful  You looked perturbed

I am. looked like she could have spat

                                        I’m disgusted.  I don’t often have these thoughts, ideations, such as the one roaming my head like a rat in trash rummaginground.

took his breath away

her facial expressions disturbingly   matched her words

                                                          disconcertingly   ugly

when she was so very beautiful

Can I help  at all

 

    Maybe if I tell you . . share the burden with you . . . you want to share my burden?

I want to help if I can

You want to answer the questionyou’re usually the one pickin’ on people tellin’em to say what they mean, exactly what they, be specific, be nuanced.

Youre right

                 I want to share your burden

 

    I’m sorr . .

. . Please  no sorries between us

I didn’t mean to bite your head off.

You didnt

             I understand

she sighed  smiled her distress alleviating her face returning to beauty

                                                                   You get me.

Yes

      Were quite the pair

We are. We are.

                           My distress . I don’t usually think this way about people . . . but I find I can’t help I’m unable . . to help myself.

eyeballing him said his name was Gunther Ooohshiver me timbers quakin in my bootsNO   No  Not at all

hed been seeing Gunthers girlfriend the last two months  sidestepped what he thoughtthen was a moral imperativehis moral imperative   though enthusiastically  he departed it

    if a fingerpointer glimpsed or met Kristen

not only would they excuse him theyd forgive him

 

Gunther was frequently out of town on business he sold drugs

                                                                      He sells drugs.  Kristen

struggled to keep laughter out of her face  struggled

he replied Hes in pharmaceuticals  A salesman

smiledwide crazy dimples going off

                                      Ohno.

Aah

Yeah.

    Then enough bout him                                                                                                

they met through a mutual friend at a semipro hockey game couple of his friends played  he was moral support might have been on the ice himself if he hadnt weak ankles they skated  he played hardwood ball

she didnt wait to be introduced thrust her hand forward Kristen. taking it Joe  she knew how to shake

a firm grip

Can I buy you girls a hot chocolate They make the best damn creamiest alcoholic hot chocolates here  Ive been lead to understand tha the quickest way to a womans heart is chocolate

I don’t think you’re after mine.

No Brie  Im not

Should I be flattered?

Brie  Kristen doesnt know me an I woudnt be objective

No. You would not.  turned to Kristen   You could do worse.

Christ Thanks for the rave review  winked

she placed a slender finger to her philtrum maybe an attempt to silence herself took it away  I think . . I think I’ll reserve my assessment until after I’ve had a taste of this purported remarkable libation.

I didnt say libation

                     Who says tha Brie  You

Kristen. No.

Ill be back

 

 

So Brie.

    He’s hard, tough. Can be a sonofabitch.  If you give him reason to be.

                                                                                But there’s not a better man to have in your corner.

                      smiled demurely  If you can corner him.

You try?

All his female friends have tried.

                                   Yes. I tried.

And?

We’re fond fast friend.

                           Bonded.

Bonded?

He has my back, I have his.

                                That said . . . hard to believe how many of his friends are women. They, we, might intimidate a lesser woman if he decided to date her.  But that said, he wouldn’t date her if she was lesser.
