It took me a long time to find them: Men who are like I would be if I were one. Tall, strong, playing guitar and drums and, of course, highly talented.
It's not always easy to sustain two men, as I pay for their food, education and all their spleens and diversions.
I had to sell half my household goods to make room for them in my small apartment. Now they sleep at the foot of my bed and the first thing I hear when I wake up is the gentle sound of the guitar and the rhythmic clatter of the pans when they make my coffee in the morning.
Often I still have to rap them on the knuckles when they fall back into doom metal as soon as I turn my back on them.
But we are happy and one day soon they will be like me and I will be like them - Me and the Minimes.
