Are Men Good Listeners? An Hour and Three Minutes of Long Pauses Followed by Uh-huh's
 
  Sometimes out of bored curiosity I will time
our conversations; at least her side
of one. The other day we were discussing
the stricter disciplinary actions
sometimes required but seldom if ever
imposed by us as a civilized society
on our out of control grandchildren
and I thought, “My God, she can’t shut up;
it’s no wonder those kids don’t pay
attention to her.” So I tried to change the subject
at hand to that of masturbation, figuring
anything requiring my attention that is taking this long
to reach conclusion, should be at least pleasant
for the person who is asked to endure it.
So while on the new topic of nice tits, I asked
her if she’d ever felt self conscious
of hers being so large; she was always
flashing me with them over the many years
we’ve been friends, so I would hardly think so,
but one can never be sure with women so bold.
My being one hundred percent red blooded male,
I never turned down the opportunity to behold
her perfect round melons. It’s amazing to me how if a woman
has a great pair of tits, men will listen to anything
she has to say, regardless of how gravitationally verbose
the rest of her has become….

Ted, this is definitely a bloke's poem - but it engaged me, thoroughly. I've watched them (the blokes I mean) , pretending to listen while their eyes stray.... Yes, a clever dissertation on the art of listening with an appealing twist. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
