the other solution to the hedgehogs dilemma

i don’t advertise every entry in here

sometimes they’re just for you and me

there’s a handful of you that check the page everyday

i think of you like family

sometimes im embarrassed about them, or i think they’re too morbid

but i know you’ll see it and understand

thank you, i love you

is that worth anything?

maybe i should say instead

thank you, i can count you as at least one more good thing that’s happened to me.

anyway, goodnight

“what was the other solution?”

what?

“the porcupines and their intimacy problems”

ah, hahahaha

each one in the circle turns and walks

they don’t have to pierce each other for warmth

and they don’t have to see each other freeze to death.

“they couldn’t relax and come together?”

they couldn’t.
