my dear lord myeloma,
you are utterly immortal
& your armies are
invincible––
for years you have
ruled the kingdom
of my blood––
& spared my life.
day & night we have
struggled and philosophized
together in this friendship
of ours––
so all we can do
is love each other.
they say you are
incurable––
i say you are
empowered.
let me honor you
by living long––
we will meet in another
dimension
where time is freed from
its chains & there
will be no barriers of body or bone
between us.
