                am i stranger than fiction

or too much of a stranger to alleviate her friction

that i'm a little less innocent than a baby in a manger

when it comes to re-arranging my diction

                 to improve her depiction

that i'm  a guy worth trusting

it goes without saying that her friendship's easily worth lusting after

but lately my funnybone's been rusting

                 without her silent laughter

               keeping me dry enough to grin

while i write our Boston Marathon

with no apparent way to know if i'm running our marathon

                           as a friend

                              or not



                                                                    love,

                                                                    howard
