ambition and hipster glee, to knock my
socks off. Oh, the places she'll go!

Voice a' nosey nasal
Fingers a' flutter
Archiving every single move.
Posture a' perfect
Hair a' moppy masterpiece

gracious, the things I could tell you.
Because, please believe me, I could
tell you some THINGS. Indeed I could.
But . . . they would all be good
things. Because she is The Best-Most.
And so I will not tell you. Because
you might then feel inadequate, and
become sad.
