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
