listening with full attention
by Jared Fladelandwhen i listen to a conversation
i study every nuance.
i appreciate the smallest flick of annoyance,
every tender raise of the eyebrow,
the faint smile of arrogance.
i allow for it to affect me
and i spurt it back out.
seemingly random at times,
but always interesting.
and right now
i want to squeeze my hands around your little neck. 11/30/2007 Posted on 12/01/2007
