+## Dear's sestina
+
+6 words to repeat:
+
+1. Forget
+2. Change
+3. Story
+4. Laugh
+5. Snark
+6. Why
+
+Intro: We have not spoken but for suggestions in missives for thirty years, and now you ask me why I am leaving.
+
+* 1. Remember Qoheleth? Poor fool could never forget
+* 2. Never realized that he still had change.
+* 3. Never cared, despite his job, his own story.
+* 4. RemembeR? Do you remember and laugh?
+* 5. I know that all my words are bound in snark
+* 6. But all that hides is asking why.
+
+* 6. My dear, did you ever ask why?
+* 1. Sure, you knew the reasons, the drive to forget,
+* 5. And you know the how, because of course. My snark
+* 2. Is here to obscure. I am not sorry. I will not change.
+* 4. Only, I wonder. When he died, did you laugh?
+* 3. Cry? Sigh? In the night, tell yourself a story?
+
+* 3. I, artist of nonsense, will ever tell my stories.
+* 6. The stories of too many reasons why
+* 4. You took your bet. For some of them, I laugh.
+* 1. Sad laughs, laughs where you shake your head. Forget!
+* 2. Silly man, but sillier bet. You, also, must change.
+* 5. I cannot demand, I am not you. Only hint, smile, snark.
+
+* 5. Again, I do not apologize for such snark,
+* 3. And were I more polite, only thank you for the story.
+* 2. At my lowest, I might sigh, nod, hope for change.
+* 6. I am not low. I am a perhaps-polite, I bow and ask for whys.
+* 1. I have done my work, my level best to forget,
+* 4. So I only hope for reasons, reassurance, commiserating laughter.
+
+* 4. How silly! Hopping to hear you, of all, laugh.
+* 5. But nothing else will cut through snark.
+* 1.
