How do I say 

this thing that I need 

to complete me?

 

I watch others do it 

so we’ll and so seamlessly 

without fear or embarrassment. 

 

Something tickles them

physically, emotionally, mentally

and seconds later it happens!

 

That thing that hits them 

in their gut making them double 

over their lips curl skyward 

 

Sometimes their teeth show

but nothing in aggression 

just a mouth opening guffaw

 

Then amazingly it happens 

again and again until the entire

room is in a state of facetiousness.
