Condescending by Kristina Woodhill Can I talk to you directly or is there really this need to go through some delicate dialogue designed (in your mind) to eliminate the inevitable self suspicion that you've committed yourself to something evolutionary in nature, something that may have dire consequences for your comfort zone I'd like to think there's more than noodles in the soup here, but I'm getting a glimpse that you like eating with a slotted spoon 05/10/2007 Author's Note: response to work place situation Posted on 05/10/2007 Copyright © 2024 Kristina Woodhill Member Comments on this Poem Posted by George Hoerner on 05/10/07 at 03:23 PM Very nice! How often to we let little truths slip through our mind somehow leaving a bit of reality for others to see what we have missed. I love it. Posted by Joan Serratelli on 05/10/07 at 05:12 PM The lasst 3 lines make this poem a gem :-) Alot said here; too bad the person it's aimed at (probably) wouldn't get it! Posted by A. Paige White on 05/10/07 at 05:48 PM You too? I often have to bite back the question... Did you press the wrinkles from your condescension before you donned it this morning? Because your creases seem to be increasing. grrrrr it's hard to swallow. Really enjoyed your take on it. Posted by Charlie Morgan on 05/10/07 at 05:53 PM ...kristina, NO! you can't talk to anybody directly, didn't you know that already, nahahaha, kristina, i too like the last three lines, but i read it several times annnd i like it all, especially when i read the author's note of a work place situation...the start: can i talk to you directly?...too much... ;-)...communication unlike what Cap'n Kirk says issss the last frontier, eh?...i love this lil' treatise on one aspect of the human condition...good work...peace, chaz Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 05/11/07 at 01:36 AM Hi Kristina. I'd agree with Chaz, few are admitted when it comes to communication. Fewer when it must be direct. Good write. Thanks.

Posted by Jean Mollett on 05/21/07 at 03:07 AM Hi Kristina, Good one. I also agree with others too. :) Return to the Previous Page   pathetic.org Version 7.3.2 May 2004 Terms and Conditions of Use 0 member(s) and 2 visitor(s) online All works Copyright © 2024 their respective authors.
