Today is my day with rafael.
I enjoy playing with him more these days.
He used to be a chore,
when he’d whine and complain
and now we talk more easily.
Since i’ve gone,
he’s a better listener.
He’ll play on the green tire,
won’t let me share.
His diet is still the pits,
a cornucopia of hamburger and french fries.
Sometimes I think he’s behind me when he isn’t.
