When I Say
I like peanut butter
You call me a chocolate-hater
And when I say I like chocolate
You say never trust anyone who despises peanut butter
Like the ad said, I like peanut butter in my chocolate
I like chocolate in my peanut butter
I like rain and sun, night and day, dogs and cats
(big ones, like lions), salty and sweet, coffee and tea,
wine and craft beer, beach and mountains, stars in the sky
and stripes on zebras
There are things I do not like, which fall under my unalienable right
to not pursue things that lead to unhappiness, like roadkill.
I like people who do not like me back, and if we meet again,
I’d like to share a package of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
one for You
one for Me
