XII. He writes

I like the way you

Fingertip-tap the paper

To count syllables

XIII. She writes

I like the way you

Silently lip-sync the words

To count syllables

XIV. He writes

So you’ve noticed, then

(I wonder what else you see

When you look at me)

XV. She writes

How about those Mets?

(Only what my heart can take)

“ The stories teach them valuable life lessons. That good things happen to bad people. That it’s possible to make a bad situation even worse if you don’t think it through. That parents are clueless except when they’re not. That it’s good to try new things even when a new thing is kind of disgusting, because new experiences make you a well-rounded person. That art can be transcendent. That lust is all-powerful, that drugs are fun, and that not everyone who does them is a loser. That losing people is part of life. That where comedy goes, tragedy isn’t far behind. That everyone has issues with their bodies, but some take it too far, almost to death. That fear can be exhilarating. That boys are assholes. That it’s important to look forward and never look back…
