you really should go there

someone asks me if i've ever
been to the great wall of china, to which
i say no, but knowing
that they will now tell me all about it.
how high it is,
how long,
how old and all that.
they will tell me that i should go there
sometime.
it's amazing.
you won't believe it.
i nod and say hmmm. then tell
them about the wooden fence
in my back yard.
the gate, how i stained the wood
a teak color. i also tell them 
that i went to bed bath
and beyond
on saturday, taking all my coupons
with me.
they look at me like  i'm crazy, but i don't
care, they started it.
