Poem
Darling? Yes dear. Have you ever had an unpublished thought? What does that mean? Is this about my profligate tendencies? Of course You know perfectly well I've never been published. No, I mean Have you ever had a thought that included the thought that maybe you need not actually say it out loud? or even whisper it to yourself? Whether there are other ears to eagerly listen in or not. No, why would anyone think that? Oh, I don't know. Maybe so those around you would have more time and space to think their own unpublished thoughts? Not to change the subject, but I have a more interesting question for you. Have you ever had an unpublishable thought? Oh my yes! All my favorites. So what would make your favorites without value for promulgation? If you have to ask then I know you could not afford to buy them. I have no idea what that even means. Maybe an example. What would be a favorite thought you have never shared with anyone? How lovely it would be if you had more unpublished thoughts. I'm not sure what to say. No. But that didn't stop you from saying something did it? Is this about me thinking out loud too much? Maybe. But I'm sure it's about not listening enough. To you? Maybe, but certainly not listening enough to yourself. Well that's how I listen to myself, by talking to myself, or whispering, maybe, sometimes. So then, yes, I guess it's about not listening enough to the silence of my favorite unpublishable thoughts and feelings. That sounds deeply provocative. Only if you listen right. Is that a silencer in your pocket or are you happy to not just hear me?
