Description
Talking
It helps to talk
It all out
Over and over
Again
And so that's
What I do
Until my tongue
Gets bruised
And my mouth
Aches
Blah blah blah
Oh yes
That's right
Uh huh
Sure
Mm hmmmm
Ok
Maybe
Listening but do I really care
What anyone else says
Or is it the sound
Of my own voice
That's so very appealing
Sometimes I can't
Tell the difference
So I'll talk on
Say what I have to say
Over and over and over
Again
No matter what
And hope
That one of these days
It will all make sense

This made me laugh so much, howls of recogniition!
YOU?? Talk?? Surely you jest. You're the quietest person I've ever met! LOLOL!! I'm looking forward to getting my voice back so I can listen again. :)
great comments, lol Tara. Great piece, funny but also true. And I always like your small lines, and your way of capturing thought in little seeds...really delightful, Marilyn, and duuuuuuude, you're at 899! Holy moly! One more and you're at the big 9-0-0! That's big, m'dear! Congratulations a post early!
LOVELY CAPTURE...!!!!!
Yadda yadda Yadda yadda Yadda yadda Yadda yadda Yadda yadda Yadda yadda Yadda yadda Yadda yadda Yadda yadda!!!!!!!!!.....LOL, cool work sweetie
Once in awhile I wind up listening to something while driving that I probably wouldn't normally hear. I had that experience not long ago. It was a program aimed at relationships between men and women. Point being made, was men...stop trying to fix something your wife or lady friend brings up. She doesn't want your snappy, fix-it solution. She wants you to just listen. Let her process the issue. Your "Talking" makes the point perfectly. See I am listening... Bill:)
Brings back memories of the old Bee Gee's hit, 'Jive Talking.' Pic is perfect companion to the narrative.
Yadda yadda yadda. LOL@PD154! A study was released some months ago indicating women speak 20,000 words a day; men 7,000. What a surprise! I wonder how much lucre they spent on that surprising revelation. Years ago I had a boss that kept mentioning something about being injected with a phonograph needle. Of course, 20,000 words may very well be a conservative estimate. I know I fall far short of speaking 7,000. In fact, I type more words than I speak. Anyway, thank you for the droll commentary, Marilyn.
Great piece. Is that what they call a composite picture? It's a very cool way of presenting. Love the words. Usually when I get home and replay the conversation in my head, it's accompanied by at least two, " Did I say that out louds"
I have concluded, people who talk a lot, are thinking aloud. I've also concluded, common, women are more apt to do this; because we are given permission to do so at very young age, as we watch our mothers do it. (Just a thought.) P.S. I discovered the art of listening from watching my dog. Personally, I prefer to listen while thinking to myself. Yet, I am glad I am skilled at thinking aloud too. So, thank you mom and thank you too for sharing I've enjoyed my visit.
and then when you smile too much the jaws hurt wonderful work warm hug, Linda
