David Rakoff Quote

Is there some lesson on how to be friends?I think what it means is that central to livingA life that is good is a life that's forgiving.We're creatures of contact, regardless of whetherto kiss or to wound, we still must come together.Like in Annie Hall, we endure twists and torsionsFor food we don't like, and in such tiny portions!But, like hating a food but still asking for moreIt beats staying dry but so lonely on shore.So we make ourselves open, while knowing full wellIt's essentially saying, 'Please, come pierce my shell.
