The vociferous George
So, here we are, it is ten in the evening
And I have my glass, nay, glasses of red wine
I'm thinking of George Galloway, who
I must say he has mellowed since he left Britain
His voice is less strident; this evidently
caused by his love for his wife and living
Abroad is culturally good for him
But do I detect a slight drift to the right
barely noticeable, but I have noticed
Could it be because he is influenced by X
that some of X, readers have made him
a moderate? No, I refuse to think ill of him.
A case of pretense to a reticence?
A once brave voice could make no sentence:
A cool one-thousand–words–per-minute
Politicians pushed to The Senate,
His subject of restless focus: Tax,
For two hours on Tax, still not lax
And this Cordless Tongue would strength not Wax.
While his eyes Messages of Fear fax;
One might think he had seen steely knives,
A wish to again kiss his dear wives…
Yes, Spencer had been a talkative,
Upper and lower lips active;
An all time YOU MAY LAWYERS CONTACT
But right here and now suing for tact.
Word has a loose tongue,
always talkative non-stop
in roof of my mouth
Talkative tongues
like the venomous snake teeth!

He loved his motorcycle, riding all day
When he rode it, all she could do was pray
He knew she was frightened by the machine
Yet he knew she was on the fence between
Finally, she agreed to take a ride on his bike
Although her talking told him what she was like
He knew she’d regret the ride as he turned south,
For a fly does not enter a closed mouth

Queen quilt was arguing with prince pillow over a diamante duvet. But diamantes are not difficult dreamers nor diagonal deprivation. In fact it is the elite of every ethos that speaks of a qualifying uneven road surface. And uneven road surfaces can be symbolised by a sign of camel humps. Great. Wonderful isn't it? But a crowd crowing is a clapping chaotic chapter chair brigade. And the interest levels of a queue and a polished but tarnished row of benches is merely apathetical and apathetical is quite pathetic and simply not formed from an array of alphabetically placed turbines. It is to remark that is remarkable but a mark on clothing needs to be erased so stand in a hail storm then. Good. Beetles bashing ball bushes bring baby Bollinger brilliant ballistic breaking bulls.

Here in the beautiful Tororo Rock*
I grabbed talkative weaver bird,
That disturbs me every morning.
Before I wake up she sits up to sing;
Before I go to bed she comes up to sing;
But I let it go escort free in her freedom.
What better thing can I do to it?
Than grant her liberty to sing in freedom,
And carry her life around the rock
*Tororo Rock is a beautiful volcanic plug in Tororo Municipality in Eastern Uganda
Talkative
Lady romantic came shaking bag green
Her habit is different mixing without aim
Not care of colleagues what they are talking
Starts to leave gossip as if bullet train
Red lipstick in purple lip is her favorite color
Green short and white pant with shoe tiptop
Curly hear brownish half sleeve in it
Black belt in waist simple looks her talkative
Friends and circles stop dialogue upon her arrival
Poor guys all know they should hear a lot from her
Creamery skin of her body dazzles as white as
Talkative title is famous for her she loves even to hear for
Odd habit she has got in mid of her talks
Loves to attract friends' attention must be paid towards
Touches every one and rolls eyes who are curious
Her guess stands accurate as if fashion of modern
Spending hours crashing grass she pass time always
Flee friends before hand as they notice her from far
Lady romantic is hip hop in the area by name miss brown
In absence of her people glee talkative so far.

You talk a lot
and I do mean a lot
endlessly, really
but you know I don't mind
Because I love to hear your voice
even if I don't always
decipher the exact words
Your voice washes over me
like sunlight
and I just soak it all in
I don't really need to speak
or respond
whenever you take a breath
I just chip in with a yeah
or a mm hmm
just so you know
I'm still listening
I watch you talk
your aquamarine eyes shining
and you're completely animated about this topic
if it's science or the funny pages, I'm not sure,
and I can see the sunlight glint off your hair,
the gleam a coppery color
And I just sit back
relax
and let you talk
trying to listen
because I know when I try
my voice catches
and my words get stuck in my throat
because I can't really speak around you
You make me nervous sometimes
and I'm sure that you know that
but I love you anyway
