and you should add your pause, there.

and you should add your pause, there.

A Poem by freelancejouster






i'm quite certain
i could talk circles around you,
babbling about him getting better -- there's nothing
around that would make this conversation
fruitful anyway.

and if you sit there
and murmur to yourself that i am wrong,
i can't say that i much care.

as, if i'm wrong, you're twice that much,
because all i've been doing is agreeing with you,
i'm just more certain of it.
and perhaps a bit condescending,
but i can't say that doesn't happen.

it's in the water,
i think i'm better
through comparison.

just a little rant about a needlessly continued conversation with both of us trying to get the last word and seem cleverer than the other... don't mind me ;)

lol brilliant! I love trying get "top that" conversationalists to blurt out some highly improbable event in hops of topping whatever I've said last. Four Yorkshiremen is one of my all time Favorite Monty Python skits, because there were 137 of us living in a small shoebox in the middle of the road :o)
