“Hello, nice to meet you
Again. How are you, now?”
(The only words I can say,
Looking at a familiar face,
No more ways to say that we are
So far away; that we’re way too late
For those Imissyou’s and wishedyouwerethere's 
Because the truth is we’re quite used to it.

But...

Family get togethers are so much fun
    provided you stick to the rules.
Greet everyone with a smile.
Get them talking about themselves.
Don't compare nor gloat.
Set the timer to 'it will be over soon'.
Keep topics neutral; arguments deflated.
Keep unmentionables hidden away.
Don't say the obvious,...

I grasp onto
Your every word
But I am afraid
You let mine go...

SMALL TALK

“How are you, well and you?
Oh my! What do you say?”
(Oh look, the time, If you don’t mind, 
I’ll now be on my way.)

“Oh everyone’s fine, Yours? Yes, so is mine, 
give all my love, hugs too.
I’m saved still the same... oh how have...

So much to say,
So little time;
Rush through each day,
No time to rhyme.


So much to do,
So many things;
To win and woo,
No time to sing.


So much to gain,
So put things off;
Bear hurts and pains,
Live with odd cough.


So much to live,
No time for grief;
So give and give,
For life...

I woke up to the sound of the keyboard clicking
I went ahead and arose and I'm not nitpicking

It wasn't long after that a friend of mine called
I'm glad we have things such as phones installed

We talked awhile concerning my poetry and reactions
I was worried hence...

Small Talk Delayed 
David J Walker

The days dawn falling in 
Uncertain brokenness 

Strangeness 
came in waves 
of multicolored
Cool sunrays 

Nothing would be the same
		He said
But nothing ever is 

Instead 
	Of small talk delayed

The gardener went about 
his business
Pruning the garden...

I will prove it to you that I’m stronger than you realize
You are my one and only that I prize in my elegant eyes
Feeling like I’ve been living under a rock 
Sorry, hon, but I’m sick of the small talk
What about you keep me warm...

I nod my head and smile again
The burning creases brand my skin
A scar I will forever wear
There's nothing left to talk about
Pretend to hear; pretend to care
I fear my words have all run out....

I have longed for a visitor, to knock upon my door                                  ...

a tender smile
brings rapport,
a seesaw thrill
releases
        a tense tang,
a humorous
             aside
banishes dread,
reminences
     flood memory
        ...

Ever
in a hurry,
missing unsaid worry-
hearing words spoken but never
listening...
