lately,
i’m seeing a lot of shocked pikachu faces online,
especially those who found out on election day…

That their partners pulled the lever for him and not her.

they’re left reeling,
airing their dismay on social media,
while pondering if they’re gonna break up.
duh?
which raises the questions...

How do you not know your partner’s political views?
And why has this never come up in any of those late-night conversations?

like,
what are ya’ll even talking about when ya’ll are together?
vixens want to know if manz a potential husband,
while gays want to know if he is full toppin’ or penis starved bottimin’,
but many skip the real questions until it’s too late.
you could be dating someone who secretly hates dogs,
can’t stand chocolate on anything,
or who goes out and kills people after 9 pm.

i get that friends and family members can surprise us sometimes,
but when it comes to someone you’re actively fucking and/or living with,
someone whose values don’t align with your everyday life…

Isn’t it worth knowing all parts of them,
including if they have a hunger for white supremacy?

we shouldn’t be finding out on election day your partner likes red hats.

“La la la la la la,
la la la la la laaaa…
i guess I just lost my partner,
i don’t know where he went…”

as someone who loves to ask questions,
both in bed and over brunch,
i’d font to you going forward:

Find out who you’re really dealing with before the surprise is on you.
