Newly Colored Shoes

The carousel
It goes round and round
With your one sided conversation
Faster and faster
Without sense it never stops
Till your words come back on you
With a pair of newly colored shoes

Brilliant, Mike! Entertaining and satisfying for the brain. :)

[Michael G. Smith]

Thanks, that's quite a compliment.

What a funny concept! :D With a pair of newly coloured shoes... ;) And I rather like one-sided conversations... When it's the other person saying something long and meaningful, that is.

[Michael G. Smith]

I would agree with you on that merit.

[Tarry Franck]

One sided conversations can be very awkward and yes go buy you some new shoes ;-)

We have a guy at work who goes on and on about his nonsense philosophy until it gets you dizzy enough to the point of nausea.

Sounds like many a conversation I've been in where the other party talks and talks without asking a single question about you. For me I like surprise endings but I'm still puzzling the last line.

[Michael G. Smith]

Based in a real person. His nonsense conversations get me so dizzy I throw up on his shoes.

[Emerald Seas]

Ah, talking to ourselves sometimes.... comes around full circle, where we are our own audience. I wonder, are the ears open to hear anyone else?

[Michael G. Smith]

Based on a guy I work with none of his opinions make much sense to the point of laughter.

[Pryde Foltz]

Yes, when all else fails, go shopping. I kid. I think it is helpful to remember that some people think out loud.

Some people hear only the sound of their own voice... Great poem, Mike!

[Michael G. Smith]
