Light conversation rattles my senses,
when all I want is to leap over fences.
Walls and barriers of confining proclivity,
of topics so earthbound it seems unreal to me.
I want to break loose discuss something relevant,
polite conversations lumbers along like an elephant.
Big and gray and only two ways around it,
being bored and polite leaves me feeling confounded.
Makes me wonder as they speak and I stare in their eyes,
are you being evasive and just wasting some time.
Life's too short and I'm so dam bored,
quit stringing me along and strike a higher cord.
Life is discovery all right all ready,
let's discuss string theory not merely spaghetti.

Yes, I too can relate to this, having grown weary of discussing the latest sporting events, or the weather, or who won the academy awards. Stimulating conversations rocks! lol
I love the humor here, and the tone that goes with it. Kind of reminds me of the alanis morissette song, "all I really want", where she longs for intellectual intercourse. Nicely done.
peace

Light conversations
where have they gone
only in darkness
I linger on
Speaking 'bout sorrow
I have begun
talking to strangers
loving no one
Drowning in music
writing a song
this is the chorus:
Darling so long
And as I pour out
tears from my mind
I see you searching
shelter to find
This is my verdict:
Weep, Sussy Weep!
hoist from your sorrow
comfort to keep
Dweel by the water
no one has known
I shall be with you
sharing my own

very good
suseann, I found the title intriguing, and the intent or concept very good. but more I think this one desires high merit. It may have been a rant, but it was still clever, I think most all of us have been there more often then we care to admit. Case in point, sometimes when I come here needing something deep or intellectual, needing a pickup or just an escape and much of what I read was well..., like tonight I was a little let down, not being insulting because everyone tries their best. but this one made the might much better, and I am sorry to go on and on. image and Visions -
Think ,and sorry if I'm wrong.You may have missed the message it delievers GlassSlipers.

Loved the relevant elephant line. I also like your title. It seemed very Winnie-The-Poohish, and I was curious.

A VERY WONDERFUL POEM
Ah suseann; I too at times like to dwell on the deeper things and the topics that are intense and also sensitive. This is a very beautiful poem -
OK, my comment is clarified! 'Twas I who needed the dictionary!
-
Are you suggesting my use of the word (proclivity)is incorrect?Mispelled?I think not.In either case.But if even this were the case,my academic PROCLIVITY has little to do with a desire for intellegent conversation.And I believe science may be onto something in it.Stringy as it seems.Thanks nefew for the time and thought required to comment positivly.LOL~~~Auntie Suseann

OK, first I need a dictionary... pro·cliv·i·ty ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pr-klv-t)
n. pl. pro·cliv·i·ties
A natural propensity or inclination; predisposition.
OH! That's what it means! lol
lumbering along like a elephant...!
String theory and spaghetti! haha now serve me up a plate of spaghetti with 23 dimensions...
A nice intellectual foray, suseann... now the first two lines could have just as easily applied to a romantic piece... Oh, pardone... lol
