Examples of Attempted Compromise

okay, i will talk about flowers if you will talk about togetherness okay, i will walk beside you if you will agree to slow down okay, you can have your freshly brewed coffee if you can accept my concentrated orange juice okay, i will check out the abstract art of you if you will look at the iridescent paint splotches of me okay, i will just tell you that i love you as you love me if you can accept that and kiss me in that 'you' way okay, i will get in touch with my sensitive side if you will freely admit that you too have flaws okay, i will meet you at a busy interesction if you are willing to join me on a one way street okay, i will gladly go with you in the exact same direction if you will finally conclude this crap so we can get something to eat!
