Conversation

* conversation *
Topic turn and talk
Conversation slowly walk
Deal the adjectives and build
On the string developed
Falling back into the space
Pauses between conversations
When mind surges to sling
A fresh hook into meat of thoughts
Pull apart this topic set
Between the two of us the flow
Words up and down and cross
The space from mouth to ear
Present and project ideas
Conclusions and perspectives
Open ended enquiry
All the tools of conversationalist
To avoid the dullness of boredom
And yet strip mine topic to a halt
And easy spring to another
Produce fresh burst of inspiration
Intelligence and hilarity
Such sober seriousness declare
Or at war with wit and daring
Sharp or heavy lay it on
When we begin to talk
The speaking ever on.
