Sonnet 40

Take all my friends sister - yeah have them all,

You've got more pals now than you did before

But of the sort who'll block your tearful call

After midnight - were you hoping for more?

They'll blacklist you and they won't receivest

(NB it's my contacts list you've usest)

You're deluding yourself (self-deceavest)

If you're dreaming they won't you refusest.

You're not all bad sis, I know you're no thief,

You won't dump me in social poverty;

It wasn't your motive to bring me grief,

Sibling rivalry?   Minor injury.

     We've got that BFFE* gene: it shows

     We have to share friends, so we won't be foes.


*Best Friends For Ever
