have you heard of
jax?
he is quite the scamp
when it comes to mischief, mirth, and violence
he's the champ
the circus is
his home
he has a lot of friends
he goes on adventures
and the fun it never ends
then
he goes to school
caine has packed
his lunch
he has lots of carrots,
he's a rabbit
munch munch munch
jax sits down in class
today it's a test
he gets all the questions right
because
jax is the best
and then
jax meets me
because i am there
i look quite like
himbut i am red with spikey hair
i become
his friend
he thinks i am smart
we go home from school
and also i have a treehouse
we play minecraft and
halo on xbox
and we order pizza
and drink lots of fizzy drinks
then we go to bed
we're in the same bed
i don't mind that much
because i trust
jax,
he's my friend
i can feel
his breath
why do i feel warm?
i feel something
i don't think i've ever felt before
the next day at school
me and
jax don't talk
i don't even see
himon the normal route
he walks
i give
him a wave
his smile turns to a frown
suddenly my heart feels cold
and dead and sad and brown
after just a month
jax has moved away
my treehouse still smells like
himwhat happened on that day?
now i'm forty-two
i live with my wife
i don't really care for her
i think i hate my life
now i work at gregg's
i miss
him every day
sometimes i pretend my wife is
jaxi might be gay
