Never Ending Talkers

Freestyle Poetry

They keep assuming

Everybody needs to know

All they have to say

Verbal motor hardly listening

Mostly blabbing

They must be scared of their silence

Pronouncing unsequential words

As long as they talk they feel secure

They cannot think without talking

Their lips move but in our heads we hear nothing

Words make no sense

Their entourage flee as they approach

Fearing to stay trapped in their verbal nightmare

Surely they must be half deaf

From all their verbal diarrhea

They have no real conversation other then theirs

Probably lacked attention in their childhood

Ongoing fear of non-stop dialogue

Never questioning their words

Thinking they illustrate confidence

Getting less and less attention

Sucking their surrounding’s energy

Over thinking each and every word

Looking down on their listeners

Never ending talkers
