This is who I am
I offer you an inexhaustible treasure hunt:
Suffer through my ugliness, my sameness, the boring regularity of my being, the spatial rhythm of my breathing. Turn your cheek to this and I may offer you a trinket - an unexpected smile, an unguarded moment of softness, an emotion stripped bare and unmasked. I may even give you a word or phrase of unbelievable wit and wisdom.
Once you find these, they are yours to keep.
