Premium Member She Was a Prattler

Incessant chitchat,  prattler, non-stop chatter.
Mouth kept going. Kids asked what was the matter.
Her own children knew
They laugh at my two.
Gossiping and gabbing makes her face fatter.

Gossip? Not I-

Gossip?  Not I…

Does everyone do?
A little high quality 
Neighborly sharing.
Chitchat and tittle-tattle
The latest information…

Kitty Isabella-  is a shy cat,

when I take her outside she just lies flat.

She likes to roll on her back,

and my feet she will attack . . . 

Her favorite thing to do . . .  is chitchat !

I dig, you dig, she dig, we all dig, it makes us weep This may not be beautiful, but it's certainly “deep” How tricky was that Such clever chitchat Surely could make it in showbiz, though a little offbeat

On Poverty

Deprivation is a great teacher
Empty cupboards and growing weeds

Cause the soul to stir
To disdain idle chitchat and merriment

Lessons learned transform the spirit from sand to granite
Conversely, dissipation and luxury turn lives to shards

Always getting one's way leads to the house of destitution
Too much milk and no meat


Premium Member Shot Glass Of A Hood Rat Espinela

I’m a fan of that background sound,
the world’s underlying rhythm;
Life’s glass has a melodic rim
amplified with every shot downed;

To the sharps in the air I’m bound,
it’s who I am I’m cool with that;
The wallflower among chitchat,
still I crave the quiet sometimes;
In the moments that static climbs;
solitude can calm a hood rat.

Premium Member Night Inherits What Day Cannot Keep

Night inherits day's endless chitchat,
shares it with the starlit canopy
holding imagination thereat. 

She is on the wrong side of normal,
as if she's a mental amputee 
or lives on a lonely sea’s atoll.

She fancies she is a butterfly
or a flower-chasing bumblebee,
but I reckon she's a damselfly.

Let her frolic in her fantasy,
ever in that starlit apogee~
forever night's lovely adoptee!

Sybaritic

Socializing, all day, until the cockcrow appears
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow, with his peers
Brilliant suits, perfect look, for the lovely dears
A busy body…......here and there, lots of cheers
Rich in emotion, poor in action, everyone hears
Interesting life….....champagne, wine and beers
Tick tock tick tock, says the clock, lo......., it gears
It’s first to arrive, late to leave, some disappears
Chitchat….chitchat….the hosts, almost, in tears

New Silence

Silence, thick, impedes forward motion
Feelings of sadness that cling
Shoulders bent with depressing emotion
No wonder my heart can no longer sing!

Silence is more than the absence of sound
When two people choose not to speak
Manners, courtesy, cannot be found
An hour, a day, then, finally, a week

Lonely is different than being alone
When spaces are shared by a pair
No one to greet when arriving at home
No chitchat is given, nothing to share.
