Underlying

A weight machine, a golf club

a penchant for non-fiction and tofu chili

No, these are not the catalysts here

Nor is the fact we have the same shaped feet

(how weird is that anyway?)

What matters is what we're both afraid of

how we share building blocks and

my hands take over where yours stop

my script contains lines for your characters

your smile reminds me of someone else

try as we might to arrange the pieces

this ugly puzzle contains no smile
