"chatty" poems
Found myself at a dental clinic... He was the best there was. Unorthodox and eccentric, But to the specialised craft, he was boss. Ran through the bits and bobs Like any normally would. The poking and prodding and the mandible X-rays. Everything cold and clinical, so was the mood. Strange was what happened next... Specialist and I then stood facing each other. He leaned close and pressed his palms against my rib cage. Held them there over a few breaths before it was over. Then a brief chat, small talk initiated by the man. Bespectacled and exceedingly chatty, small in stature. Talks of politics and odd human behaviours... What started off as friendly turned into a heated banter. I then realised that along with his decorated credentials, Was his propensity to be condescending and arrogant. Him being the best, I thought I could let it all slide, But soon enough I opted out of being a willing participant. Couldn't stand his abrasive cockiness! I snapped out of being cordial and passive thought. I wanted him to just stop talking! I went, "Well, are you going to fix my teeth or not?!" He was stunned momentarily... I suppose he hadn't seen that coming. Then his features softened to a blank I could almost read the unspoken words he was conjuring. With an exasperated sigh of resignation, He uttered his next words swollen with regret "There's no need...for you only have four years left." It dawned upon me that my timer has been set. And then I woke up...

Strange Dream
The Purple People come in many sizes, from small to extra-large – some are quiet and smiley, while others are louder and chatty. What they have in common, apart from the obvious distinctive pigment, is a welcoming demeanour that makes you feel that you have perhaps met them before or that you would like to meet them again. I first met a Purple Person as I climbed the steps, looking for reassurance that I wasn’t late and that I wouldn’t stand out too much in my nervous newness. I’m not sure what it was about their purpleness, but I felt one step closer to acceptance as I walked into the warm. I saw the matching purple banners and smiled at the attention to detail and the attention given to me which, while practiced, was far from forced and held a genuine purpleness. I met other Purple People at intervals, each with the purple family likeness of a smile, even though their heritage varied in shade. The further I walked, the more I relaxed and found that some of the Purple People weren’t wearing the signature purple tee shirts, but it was clear they came from the same palette because their welcome carried the same purple weight and the same authentic purpleness. This shouldn’t have been surprising, as I soon discovered that they each bore the same purple family likeness of the Purple King who welcomes everyone.

Purple People
I This is the night mail crossing the Border, Bringing the cheque and the postal order, Letters for the rich, letters for the poor, The shop at the corner, the girl next door. Pulling up Beattock, a steady climb: The gradient's against her, but she's on time. Past cotton-grass and moorland boulder Shovelling white steam over her shoulder, Snorting noisily as she passes Silent miles of wind-bent grasses. Birds turn their heads as she approaches, Stare from bushes at her blank-faced coaches. Sheep-dogs cannot turn her course; They slumber on with paws across. In the farm she passes no one wakes, But a jug in a bedroom gently shakes. II Dawn freshens, Her climb is done. Down towards Glasgow she descends, Towards the steam tugs yelping down a glade of cranes Towards the fields of apparatus, the furnaces Set on the dark plain like gigantic chessmen. All Scotland waits for her: In dark glens, beside pale-green lochs Men long for news. III Letters of thanks, letters from banks, Letters of joy from girl and boy, Receipted bills and invitations To inspect new stock or to visit relations, And applications for situations, And timid lovers' declarations, And gossip, gossip from all the nations, News circumstantial, news financial, Letters with holiday snaps to enlarge in, Letters with faces scrawled on the margin, Letters from uncles, cousins, and aunts, Letters to Scotland from the South of France, Letters of condolence to Highlands and Lowlands Written on paper of every hue, The pink, the violet, the white and the blue, The chatty, the catty, the boring, the adoring, The cold and official and the heart's outpouring, Clever, stupid, short and long, The typed and the printed and the spelt all wrong. IV Thousands are still asleep, Dreaming of terrifying monsters Or of friendly tea beside the band in Cranston's or Crawford's: Asleep in working Glasgow, asleep in well-set Edinburgh, Asleep in granite Aberdeen, They continue their dreams, But shall wake soon and hope for letters, And none will hear the postman's knock Without a quickening of the heart, For who can bear to feel himself forgotten?

A sunflower grows "tall and simple". And so does a cancer small and simple. Holes grow larger around me. A field of sunflowers and headstones. The power of recovery and discovery; the kick of a pen during unconscious behavior. Chatty beats taking control of the morgue. Not letting the rivers in-- only the shivers. Chatty beats taking the liver, putting it in a living corpse. Chatty beats opening the door in the clouds. That's but a bedtime story that's read to the youth and told as the truth. Hypnotize so I can't criticize, stick my face in the water and show me the baby otters I loved from my childhood bedtime stories. The glories of floating on my back into a brand new habitat filled with sunflowers "tall and simple" and holes growing larger to keep me warm and breathing under the water.

Walking into the Reception Hall, they stole the show away, A regal pair they were, with a little bit of Butch and Sundance swagger shown. A confident air, not at all underserved. Dressed with just enough elegance. Their posture and hue , sleek and silky golden, like a duet of Cheetahs. Eyes alert and searching for prey. Alert for danger. Like a herd of antelope, all heads turned to look, The men perhaps out of desire, the women staring envy at them, Like the twin bores of a loaded gun. Mother and fetching daughter, From twenty feet, hard to tell which, one was one, or the other. Long blond hair, full and fine, both women tall, statuesque, moving with grace and ease. The mother my old friend, the daughter all grown up now, each having a smile that would light up anyone's darkness of mood. We greeted one another, hugs and hand shakes shared. A little conversation in the crowded room, Many pairs of eyes upon us there. Enchanted is the word that best describes my impression, this duo as intelligent and charming as they were beautiful to see. The mother sedate, classy and yet open and free, no pretense, no games just naturally at ease. As lovely as I remembered her to be. Her offspring, vivacious, spirited and bold, smart as whip, with a tongue that could draw blood if she desired it to. Chatty and funny, sure of herself, in the manner of beautiful people, yet not in a pompous way, merely Confident in self and her place in the world. She possessed all the character traits you would wish your own daughter to have. Her Mother had done well is raising her. Too soon they moved on, meeting and greeting others', out of my hearing and seeing. Some weeks have passed, a month or two and yet their strong impression has lingered, I can't keep them out of my mind. The Mother, my friend most of all.

I took care of others, walked in their shoes, got their trivial pains and forgot my loyal legs... If I present you the baneful thorns I have trodden, would you be ready to follow me again and barefoot? My mind will always be bitterly cold as an intact valley and never understood... Though I am sure that you do not care, I feel well, very well, except longing. Your dreams are flying even everywhere while I try to stop contemplating... You know, I am a bit chatty when I am inspired and the poet inside me never gets tired. You can't grasp how painful it is to emanate a poem, how you go out of your infatuated mind... When 'clevers' seek for justice, but only for themselves, there is nothing else purer than the tears of madmen. So, happiness would have been an evident injustice, if all of the people attained their desires. I have faced many types of mental battles, but no war is harder than the lack of love inside. Love is living your life for another one's sake, sacrificing everything with honor and pride... Now I am sure that there exists no hate, but just does the love of hatred indeed. Before the absurdness of irrevocable fate only love will save us in eternity... No feeling will help you to be deeply blessed while mass is spurious and loners are obsessed... As you **** your hopes you gain fake freedom, but free slavery will still be going on, sometimes feeling oppressed, depressed, repressed... However, Invincible I am before such odd jobs and I have found ways to keep myself up. Now I live slowly till the time begins to blur, paradoxes take place within my dark thoughts, I divide the time to its perpetual aeons, all the rules and limits I swear to deny and save the endless time when we were eye to eye... Through your looks the heavenly sky is clear and all the possibilities are real there... My benevolent angel, let the eternity recur from the start, only the eyes of blinds do not show their hearts... I feel very sorry and deeply upset, when the human inside silently regrets ... Yet I am too clumsy to move mountains, to achieve sanctity which I want to serve. I wish I made you happy at my any chance, But I can only make you happiness itself...

We've heard of a woman's grace, And romantic fables of her charm. But delve beneath the surface, And stir waters outwardly calm. A woman, if pleased is divine And will do plenty to prove her grace. when angry she'll turn serpentine And descend like a meteor from space. She’ll be sarcasm personified, Every sentence riddled with a taunt. You’ll be slandered and vilified, And derided as shabby & gaunt. When pleased she’ll be friendly and chatty And lure you to reveal your fears. But soon she’ll turn vile and catty, And delight in your failures. She won't leave a chance to ridicule And bring up things you’d rather forget. She will attack with every feminine tool, And force you to mull and regret. And when you've had enough of her satire And try to give her a piece of your mind, She will breathe out tons of fire, And to crisp she'll burn your behind. So don't **** a woman to show Her ****** and vindictive side Be a gentleman if you don't want to know That Far from being Jekyll, she's Mr. Hyde

The dark side to the fair ***
I realize I am young I realize I am small I realize I'm mature I realize that I'm really not that mature at all. I realize that I'm chatty That I murmur endlessly I realize I'm not perfect I realize I'm not skinny I realize that I'm funny I could make you laugh for days. I'd say I know myself pretty well. But the hardest thing for me to realize Maybe the hardest thing I've ever had to, Was that you don't love me. That you probably never have And you probably never will.

Realization
A little oasis occupied in a cafe that approaches capacity. Three opposite, two adjacent, a couple at the windows to the right. Six or seven more around the corner, out of view Early twenties guy, has a slightly too-small zippered sweater, with head down and a two-handed hold on his phone the left relinquishes its grip for a minute to wipe across his face. Late fifties man in a blue,zipped, baggy, sweat shirt and early-nineties hair gone grey. A phone too, but of a more palm-and-fingertip interaction with pursed lips and an occasional surveying of the room. A quiet girl at my right leaves and four chatty middle-aged yoga ladies squeeze onto the table for two. They obliterate my concentration and I resort to a cocoon of headphone noise. Their too-strong perfume forms a veritable blue cloud and leaks into the taste of my tea.

Smelly Ladies of the Yoga
I moved in with Mr McGoo , he seemed  a pleasant bloke a bit chatty for one but then beggars cant be choosers. He gave me the guest room and a skeleton key and a King James Bible. He left , mumbling something about an Optometrist's appointment as he stumbled through the door. The Flivver coughed, spat and rattled.Mcgoo was in control and of he roared away still mumbling about pork bellies and such. Herky jerky relic with a hurdy gurdy horn. The winding stairs led me hither so down the rail I slid In search of McGoo venture. To suss where the safe was hid. Rumor has it that He struck it rich one day and promptly sailed west and bought the House of Divine Pleasures overlooking Frisco Bay. Who knew. As luck would have it, he forgot to close the safe so there it stood wide open a square hole in the southern wall. The Standing Shiva glared at me his arms like deadly serpents One named Beckon the next on Call. The other six arms bristled with bronze and iron death.The Shiva winked his middle eye and tears streamed from the other two. The safe still hung wide open McGoo was such a bounder. He knew me well and he could tell the weakness in my soul. for he and I had broken bread and severed heads in youthful days of yore. He knew I was a scoundrel and a thief. The Shiva had a weakness for women and the drink and him with eight arms and such became to be a bit much at the pleasure spot in Frisco. He had to go. So I turned and returned from the liquor cabinet a bottle of McGoo's best bathtub Gin in tow. The Shiva came a running cross, a smile a mile wide drooling. With arms outstretched, boy he could fetch. Could not hold his spirits though. Never could. Out cold in no time flat. The safe gaped open like the grave six deep. So. I walked up slowly to it and strained to look within There sat old McGoo's ear trumpet and spare glasses a handful of rain checks stacked neatly in a corner. Along with his last will and testament written out in Braille. Just then I heard the Flivver pop. I had to stop. close the safe. Empty the flower vase on Shiva. Up the stairs I bounded. closed my door and started Sleeping. Oh McGoo , you've done it again.

Laughter, Jokes, Humour, Smiles, Never ending chatty lines, Aching heart with a big wide smile, Fun and pun both combined, Look I just made a joke, Come on pal Smile, They ask me why u smile so much, I can't tell them, It's my secret and such, A joker they call me, A goof they call me, Carrying so much pain, A broken heart that's stained, Hiding those tears behind this laughter, And collecting the broken pieces there after, Cause I swear I'll always smile, Never let my sadness dim the light, Because the moment I'll lose this smile you will realize, That this joker is dying inside, Why I chose this path you ask me? Life played me as a joke, Sadness came after me, So I decided I'll grab the sadness, Never let it escape, Don't let it get to anyone else, Some will say it's madness, It will make you dark and dead, But look I'm smiling from my toe to head, Cause deep inside I know it's foolish I know it's hard, Cause deep inside it's all damp and dark, Cause deep inside there's nothing left, Cause from the deep inside this joker is dead, The joker is dead, The joker is dead.

Joker
My Grandmère and I have long, gossipy conversations, where we fall into our own chatty, slumber party rhythms. She’s met or knows everyone important, and people tell her things. They DM her or whisper secrets of lives ordered but loveless, of careers choked by excesses and indiscretions. She gets stealthy, leaked business reports of purported fortunes gambled and lost or of innocence wasted in bittersweet embrace - delicious, tangled narratives that expose the gaps between facades and realities that can’t be purchased. Sometimes we pop popcorn on our private ends of the Atlantic, watch Netflix, share secrets and laugh conspiratorially. . . Songs for this: Us by Regina Spektor Young And Dumb by The Bird and the Bee

Karma was a dancer at the Déjà Vu, trading fantasies a few days a week for ***** crumpled bills and then living the dream on her days off. That was before I knew her. Before she faded just a little. Which is not to say that she was no longer beautiful with her mermaid hair, the color somewhere between phosphorescent amber and burning chestnut brown, down to her *** and falling all around her painfully sensuous curves. The faint pucker lines 'round her mouth, that liver spot, a slight, barely discernable paunch, I could see such things, too but they only endeared me to the façade of some silly notion a kin to forever. We would stay up late, even on the weeknights,   wine silly and **** chatty. She would dance and I would tell her ****** poems in exchange. It seemed like a good trade to me but the truth is, she was being shorted in the deal. We said, I love you but I’m not sure we knew that we didn’t really have that to offer one another. Both of us had sold more than we had ever bargained for long before we met. When money ran thin and times grew hard she split. Hope still stops by on occasion. (She was a dancer, too). But it seems a bit easier to distinguish differences between the faux and the genuine these days. She doesn’t stay long. I like to blame it all on Karma despite knowing that I was just never quite frugal or savvy enough to afford more than a few perfume-drenched moments at the foot of the stage.

For Less than a Dollar
I have never been a man of many words. That is you would not call me by any stretch of the imagination bombastic. Nor would you refer to me as long- winded. I try to be as concise as possible. I feel that most people have a select few adjective to describe themselves. Personally chatty, diffuse, discursive,flatulent, loquatious, palaverous, pleonastic, prolix nor verbose would be on this list. My words are not ample aplenty bounteous bountiful generous plenteous plentiful profuse or super abundant. And when i make a speech it is not oratorical or overblown... I am not pompous...I try to be as consise as possible.

words do not come easy to me...
About three years ago I visited the Cavern pub on Matthew Street. My friend Ian Prowse runs the open Mic night. They have two rules. No cover versions and three songs maximum. I hadn't been for a while and was immediately set upon by Ian to sing a song he likes that I wrote. So when the time came. Up I got and sang. After I went to the bar, my nerves shot. I ordered a drink and a lady approached me and said how much she enjoyed it. We chatted and she asked was I there every week. I said sadly no I have other commitments. She then said she would be back next week as working in Liverpool again would I like to meet up for a drink? . I agreed to meet at 7, Matthew Street. I had just met Heidi. The next Monday I finished work. Jumped the train to James Street and there she was. I asked had she eaten yet and she hadn't. So we went to a little Thai place on South John Street. We sat down ordered a bottle of white wine and made our selections. By the time we had finished the starters there was about 1cm of wine left in the bottle and she was very chatty and loud. Much to the delight of the couple on the table next too us who seemed to hang on her every word. The main course came and went as did the second bottle. I still hadn't got halfway into my second glass. Now truly smashed she says "I suppose you will want a BJ after this?" The lady on the table next too us almost choked, her husband let out a laugh and I said, I know not why, "That sounds nice, but I was looking forward to the Apple pie with ice cream to be fair." That was it for the couple next to us. His wife almost had an embolism and he laughed his head off. Heidi got up threw her napkin on the table, downed her glass of wine in one, announced to the fellow dinners "He's not getting laid tonight" Turned, almost demolished the table leaving, and stormed out. The couple next to me now in tears, the waitress comes to the table and asks "Err is the lady coming back?" I reply No I don't think so. She then asks would I like dessert? Before I can say a word the chap on the table next to us says "I hope you have apple pie and Ice cream for the poor guy" The waitress said "No" and that finished it. Three tables of people laughing relentlessly. I sat and had melon ***** and they chatted like we had known each other for years. What of Heidi? She was never to be seen again.

The lady on the table next too us almost choked, her husband let out a laugh and I said, I know not why, "That sounds nice, but I was looking forward to the Apple pie with ice cream to be fair." That was it for the couple next to us. His wife almost had an embolism and he laughed his head off. Heidi got up threw her napkin on the table, downed her glass of wine in one, announced to the fellow dinners "He's not getting laid tonight" Turned, almost demolished the table leaving, and stormed out. The couple next to me now in tears, the waitress comes to the table and asks "Err is the lady coming back?" I reply No I don't think so. She then asks would I like dessert? Before I can say a word the chap on the table next to us says "I hope you have apple pie and Ice cream for the poor guy" The waitress said "No" and that finished it. Three tables of people laughing relentlessly. I sat and had melon ***** and they chatted like we had known each other for years. What of Heidi? She was never to be seen again.

I'm complicated Imperfect And Insecure The Gullible A Troubled one Emotional Full of bad thoughts Not at all cool A sensitive Conflicted Catastrophe A full story I'm not unique Kind of a geek Sometimes silly Chatty Yet Shy I really try Sometimes I cry I know I'll die Life is no phase I couldn't lie

If I were white, blond and blue eyed, with long legs, ample ******* and sharp cheekbones... Or If I were icy cold, with hardly any soul, and simply on a mission to use and discard all men... Or If I were a lot less chatty and far more witty, said all the right things and didn't laugh so loudly... Or If I were really good at water-polo, swimming, sailing or some sport, had mastered an art or multiple languages... Or If I were the kind to have casual *** and just move on like nothing ever happened other than casual *** Or If I were more of a chase, played hard to get, and wasn't automatically responsive to all and any whimsical... Or If I were not Me...                                                                                                                         Would you feel anything for me?                                                                                                                                                     Would you care?                                                                                                                                                             Would you?

While the dozens of lights change their colors and the pigeons coo and stalk the courtyard across the way is a corner store where idlers stand sharing a paper bag and troubles then a helicopter owns the sky but no one seems to care but him then some chatty women hurriedly pass below leaving perfume trails and crew workers discuss what to do next while sipping coffee and an old woman goes about picking up bits of trash and the cars rush around to points unknown and as the morning sun beats down upon him sweating he overlooks it all then sighs cries and closes his eyes ©2012 Lyn

I'm hoping you have no doubts I'm writing this to and about you. : ) Thank you for finally letting me know you know I'm alive. Just thinking about talking to you makes the butterflies go crazy. My heart beats then skips a beat when I see you around town and I swear it's strictly by accident. I'm not actively following you around. I haven't been to sleep because I'm up thinking about you but not in the sick and twisted Bardo way of stalking then killing. I haven't been searching for your address or where you hang out like that anonymous lunatic posting that on Craigslist forum. I still want your phone number but only if you want to give it. You asked the impossible melting snow against weatherman's predictions and you got this hold over me like I never felt before. Are you a keeper of  unworldly secrets of magic or someone who is quite lovely and is just plain an extraordinarily special and gifted lady? I'd like to discover that for myself if you would agree to meet me at Little Bohemia it's aka Lil Bo's by us locals to hear a Jazz band. It's a public place and I heard it through the grapevine you popped in a few times but I can't say that's true, I wasn't there and it's hear say. Person said you entered alone but didn't sing and it looked like you were having a good time being a chatty patty and hearing the band. The more I get to know about you lady the more I want to discover. You got a wish and mine is not as impossible as yours I'm hoping. I want in my life a lady like you who oozes confidence when she enters a room and when she's being chatted up by complete strangers. I will be in the parking lot watching the door and enter if you enter. Hoping to see you Friday night and hoping to see that gorgeous smile. Hoping you agree to meet me but if not I will keep on hoping for that.

*The muse of Edgar Allen Poe visited with me late one night And the walls of my mind bled red The muse of Emily Dickinson visited with me late one night And I found out Death is a real chatty kind of guy The muse of Elizabeth Barrett Browning visited my dreams late one night Teaching me the sweet depth, breadth, and height of a love so true The muse of Robert Frost gave me nightmares late one night Making me choose a road to travel and reminding me of the "miles to go before I sleep" Smirking my muse laughed "just stick with me kid, at least with me blood won't coat the walls of your mind nor will you have to listen to Death's incessant chatter you'll never drown in that big river of love nor worry about the miles you have to travel so open your heart your soul and what you will find is the most beautiful gift ever bestowed your voice and finally your song will be sung"*
