Untitled Expression of Desire for Love
March 14, 2021
Somebody love me that way that Chasten loves Mayor Pete
Enough to travel around the whole of America
Not necessarily spending time together
But doing everything to support each other’s crazy ideas
And when I do become president I want to be supported by someone like Henry McCord
Preferably one who doesn’t share that character’s adoration for theological humor
Somebody please serenade me
Tell me that I’m your Mariah Carey
I want a romance like David and Patrick’s
With someone who was also uncharacteristically emotional over the Schitt’s Creek finale
I would love to be somebody’s Yeti
If they beared enough resemblance to John Green to get that reference
Alternatively I could be what Katherine is to Hank
Or rather what Hank is to Katherine
Because I want to be a bigger nerd than my future partner
So somebody please put up with me as I follow the lead of America’s Chemistry Teacher
I want a love story like Evie and Stephen Colbert’s
With someone who makes me laugh even with political commentary
Someone whose joie de vivre I’m more than willing to share with the whole world
I want to be with somebody who brags endlessly about my fixing a washing machine
Who I can say is “the great one” when I’m told about said bragging
If I could just be the Athena to another person’s Ramses
No, there was no marriage between a Greek goddess and an Egyptian pharaoh
Those are just the names of one of my best friends’ parents
The people who quite possibly have the relationship of which I’m most jealous
