A List Of Things

When we walk down the street put your hand on my back

Be a nice boy 

Teach me things without being eager to 

Maintain a straight face at all times 

Listen when I speak but not too attentively

Tickle the nape of my neck 

Use your mouth to open packages 

Be controlling about what groceries I buy 

When you kiss me graze your tongue against my teeth 

Watch me sleep
