my best conversations
are with myself
real people are rarely around
if you exclude doctors and nurses
sometimes I go for days without
using my voice at all
so these chats I'm talking about
take place inside my head
my inner voice is rather friendly
we rarely disagree
we make exciting plans together
like which chore to do next
I often stumble when a genuine person
speaks to me in the grocery store
sometimes I stutter which i never do in my mind
I think I just need more practice
they say there is nothing like
the real thing....oh wait, that's Coca Cola

And all this time I thought it might only be me.
Re: we rarely disagree
seems to be something we all do, but rarely talk about
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism
Re: we rarely disagree
I'll discuss it with myself on this afternoon's walk...

I've caught myself talking aloud to myself in the car lately too....when I become aware that other motorists are watching i pretend i'm talking on my phone

Re: we rarely disagree
yeah it was great when I had babies, you could pretend you were talking to them.
I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than teach 10,000 stars how not to dance.

A dog on a leash, too. And they'll never point out any embarrassing flaws in your logic.
