he is almost perfect
Lee is perfect she said
he has a burping problem but it is cute
what makes him perfect? I asked her.
He is exactly right, except for his hair.
But I will get him to change it after we are married.
Almost perfect? I guessed.
He is a mama’s boy; that is a bit of a problem she told me.
And he has a horrible habit of licking the spoon.
What makes him perfect? I query again.
And putting it back into the communal pot.
I will break him of that and some other nasty habits.
She gives me a smile. He is my man, my one and only.
He will never be able to leave me, she says.
I will change him into the perfect man.
So he is not yet perfect? I guess.
I realize there will be no answer.
