mon ami...

Friends,

or at least good friends,

adhere to a code,

an honor system of sort.

It's pretty universal

and applies to almost everyone.

What are they???

Seriously?

Well,

that sure explains alot.

Like, umm  I don't know....

For me,

not fooling around with my family members

is a big one.

You know like my sisters,

my brother,

my cousins,

my grandmother,

my dog,

you know

anyone or thing that matters to me.

Go ahead,

mess with every Dick and Jane possible

but please don't swim in my family pool yo.

And oh,

talking trash about your other friends,

not good either.

It's harmless if you're jesting

about your brain and dick sizes 

but when you 

start telling each others secrets,

while it's juicy for me to hear,

it's pretty jacked up for you to share.

Not such a buddy there yo.

And one last thing,

while you may be perfect,

not everyone is.

Let's not be smug.

You may just find out how very imperfect 

you really are.

That's how a friendship works  yo.

As long as you abide to the basics

you should be fine.

You scratch my back and 

I'll scratch yours.
