I don’t feel comfortable
in the small talk,
it comes out
the wrong,
unhelpful, inconsequential
and full of near sighted opinions
that are
immovable, restricted
and deaf.
Give me
the big conversation, one of
depth,
one that can be easily followed
and can create
illumination,
loud voices of agreement
or of argument
but in which thankfully never comes
down to
asking someone
just how much their house
is worth
