tissues

Like the sound of distant coughing
the masks of people’s courage fail
and we flail in amongst our daydreaming fears
the tears of beast we don’t normally acknowledge
I promise to be a tissue for you.
Absorb everything.
Take my side when I'm right.
Argue when I'm wrong.
Slap me to your sense,
as I will slap you to mine.
