d.j.b.  my friend.  and protector.

i’ve never had a friend who was so fiercely loyal and yet so softly compassionate — your duplicity is a gift.

thank you for late night talks and bathroom confrontations and for making every moment count.

i always feel safe by your side.

the only people for me are the

mad ones

mad to live

mad to talk

mad to be saved

the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing

but burn, burn, burn

like fabulous yellow roman candles

exploding like spiders across the stars

happy birthday to djb, a shining star in my otherwise dark sky. i hope your day is filled with light and magic and all the things that make you happy.
