You need me
to take out the garbage, not later but now!
to mop the floor
to do the laundry
to zip your dress
to tickle your fancy
to make you laugh
to mop the floor the second time
to drive you a distance
to reach for that thing way beyond your vertical reach
“No, not that one. Ya, that one.”
I need you to need me
Without it, I am no longer the person I am supposed to be.
Your man
Your lover
Your everyday man-Friday.
Need me more
Move me more
Love me more.
Happy birthday, doe-a-dear Rissa
Happy Mother’s Day, too.
I love you.
