Sober Love
Quiet sober love
rises with the morning Sun;
Unspoken desire
lingers from the night before;
Small talk has found the silence....

I See You
Quick with the small talk;
Surrounded by attention,
still you stand alone;
Your broken heart in your eyes;
Do you see me? I see you....

Sometimes gossip sprouts
Sowing deceptive stories.

Laundromat, 9:12 P.M.
Sixteen unique individuals
sit on sixteen washing machines.
As they make small-talk
they stare at sixteen dryers, all in a row
chugging and churning to the same hum....

Frost and Thoreau Go On a Walk
Frost and Thoreau were going for a walk.
Frost said I can make a poem from a sock.
Thoreau laughed hard
At this braggish bard
Published a poem from this crazy small talk....

Clerihew York
A US born painter was Albert York
preferred action to small talk
American vanitas was his style*
small,minimal lacking guile

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

Small Talk
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....

Small Talk
I have longed for a visitor, to knock upon my door
and indulge me with stories,
from another shore.
Someone with whom,I may wile away the hours,
conversing about life...
not just the rain showers...

Gynecologist
GYNECOLOGIST
Grappling to make small talk:
“Good morning,” he begins.
“Gee, I like your cute socks”
Good grief don’t speak to me…
Gaining back my pale face
Gynecologist gaff!

Vice Versa
oh my, you're splendid
like a fern growing backwards
„you hack writer“
you're a castellanus at 9 PM
after the dinner rich in miracles
hate re-living the mundane moments
over
and over
and over
and over
so sick of the everyday small talk.
still magnetized by the oddities.
this is the right way, not vice versa....

Small Talk
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 is brief.

Distant Shores
Crashing waves on the rocks
And Smelling salt water air
As I walk towards the docks
Sightseeing boat tours appear
I partake the tour on a whim
Making Small talk with people
forgetting my woes with some gin
Life is feeling more simple
In the distant shores I see
My lover with his new beauty
I think about jumping ship
but I will just have another sip...

Small Talk Xxiv
*************Note: Life Is A Trampoline***********
It is a fool who
Puts' ideas' into His
Own Head
-And-
Then bounce around
On an Trampoline
GF
Morrow: Though life has it's own
Ups' and Downs'
Be prepared......
For that bounce'
Before you hit the ground........
