At Least I Noticed..... Poem by RIC BASTASA

i talk to the talker
i despise his talk and i talked to him to
walk his talk
and we had a little disagreement about
what talking is
whether talking is working too which he says
is.

he said he did not like me and that i am irked by
his talking

i hope he should have noticed that by talking to him
i have become a talker too and that by despising his talk
i too despise myself.

at least i noticed. And so i walked away.
now i think i just walked my talk. And i talk to myself

' did i please you now? ' and the self just keep on walking
not listening to my own talking.
