afraid of my Friends
and with some damfine reasons
some afraid for me
those are the ones I must* trust:

*(Last line one syllable too long: “Even Demi-Lunch not Free!
*(either Must Trust or Most Trust – I lean to Most…first line of tanka couplet.
All is a riff on Robert Anson Heinlein’s TANSTAAFL, wonderfully explored by Spider Robinson…want to know the acronym: lookitup!
Reblogged this on richwrapper and commented:
