To everyone tagging me in these Haiku challenges: I appreciate the optimism, but I don’t speak 'poet.'

I’m declining the invitation for the safety of the arts.

However, if we want to pivot to something useful—like the most obnoxious thing you’ve ever said to a stranger—I’m in.

To prove my lack of talent, here is how I arrived at my 'literary peak':

I love you

You love me

…

(Whatever that purple dinosaur’s name is. Barney? I’ve already forgotten.)
