Rushing Forward
no one knows the value of a pause
rushing forward spewing this and that and the other and a mother
recklessly, carelessly, stupidly
I see it happen and I laugh
silently inside my head, under my breath
to myself for I understand the value of diplomacy
so here we are the pause and I not speaking
smirking at their nonunderstanding
