listening, yes, I am listening.
not talking, yes, I am not talking.
looking, yes, I am looking.
bowing, yes, I am bowing.

we see them do it, yes, we do.
swarms of them all
bitter and bald

fly away and evolve

speaking, yes, I am speaking.
laughing, yes, I am laughing.
spitting, yes, I am spitting.
