The Perfect Confidant


Who is the perfect confidant?
Someone who knows when to propose

a soft détente – who undergoes
with you those journeys of the heart

for which you think you yearn
without exactly taking part? Somebody

who has such a preternaturally fine
assignment of wise sensibilities that he

or she can tease you into seeing
more than you’d been able

quite to see before?
Perhaps.

But when the day grows late,
I think I’d rather have a playmate.
