What we think others think

Restful without worry,

comfortable with the

balance of fun,

and touches unessential but done

for fruitless tradition seeding none.

Focus on the worthwhile

to hedge regret

when someone later asks.

Fiction lives forever.

Reality ever changes it’s story.

Words teeter common assumptions,

skirt around the cause to change,

concentrate on effect,

linger on the principles,

and echo the irritating,

pronouncing the opinion,

and all this fed by feeling,

but not expressing,

leaving others to seek stories.

Offer solace to those

who actually experience loneliness.

They seek that surrounding voice.
