I can't be the only one
Who thinks that
My best friend's boyfriend
Looks like a pea from
“VeggieTales”
With a white paintbrush
Splayed across his forehead
With black whole notes for pupils
And veiny skeleton hands
Could I?

I'm so glad! I always told my friend he looked like a pea from that show, but she's Muslim so she never really understood. She thought it was funny nonetheless, so I'm glad you shared that.

I love this SO much! The imagery is creative and fantastic (I'm a sucker for Veggie Tales), and it really made me laugh. Really awesome!

I'm totally skeptical of him. I don't trust him one bit. X) it's almost like I'm criticizing him.

I really like this poem; I especially like the 'white paintbrush splayed across his forehead' bit :) Is this to do with the 'person' writing this being skeptical or worried for their friend or is it meant to be jealousy?
