Writing Unseriously About Serious Subjects

Freshening of the chair-wherewithal I sit and meet the stewing news with hearty meat and veg The idleness unspoken here - here I right no wrongs I just belong to the sect that sits upon the court that no one hears I write of unimportant matters that are detained chained to a box a talking box How strange our ancestors would find the lies between the perfect teeth of time though linked to an intersectional ginormous behind 5/7/2022

"here I right no wrongs I just belong to the sect" I like this because of its sheer casual tone!

It's two- way are the highway with me, Kim. It's not taking or having a conversation if there is only one voice, and as you say, it's okay if it gets a little stimulating. lol Hugs, Bill

So many do precisely that, but I prefer to take things in their proper perceptive. I hope you don't think I'm pompous because I'm not. Hugs.

Not just writing, but conversations too! Thanks for the thoughts, we need to be more bold to discuss the things that truly matter to us, but not in argumentative ways…

A two-way conversation should be stimulating. Thanks, Jeff!

Thanks Kim enjoyed your poem and wonder why we put off what we really want to say and fill the air with prattling small talk .What questions are we holding within us till the ones with the answers are gone. You would think we never learned to TALK at all.I am trying to do better and find people find it quite off putting to go beyond nonsensical nattering. Every now and then though I connect and it is well worth the effort.All the best to you and yours.
