For the Sake of Friendship

After a long discussing
With 
Emily
Spiced with 
Empirical
Etiquettes
She said,
“Send me something
For the sake of friendship.”

The time I got
Home
I opened the
Oxford
Dictionary
To clear the 8 words up
For fairness
I paged
96 pages
Of WOMAN SPYCHOLOGY,
71 pages
Of 
WOMAN SPIRITUALITY,
SEX, AND RELATIONSHIP
Hell!
I did not find 
Something that 
Looks like
“for the sake of friendship”!
In this time
Of Ebay,
pop-ups,
sex and the city,
and 
In this dark time
Of religion
And the apocalypse

Is this a
New gene discovery
Put on the first
Page
Of a 
Misfortunate
Local
News paper
Or
A new kind
Of self serve
