Listen

It is so damn hard to listen at times,
to just stop thinking about my answer,
and just  let the other be,
to have his or her thoughts.
To perhaps learn from those who think different...
what a thought!!!!
Name calling
an Hom's
such a waste
walls go up
with class embedded on top
lest any unwelcome thought
or word from the other gets thur.
The world is large
both the inner and the outer,
a lot of space for communication
if my guard is let down,
and a little trust in the well meaning-ness
of the other is accepted.
We all hate boxes,
can't breath,
fight to get out,
chest constricted
soul feel imprisoned by barbed wire......
anger is the energy that is often used
to cut Thur and attempt to be free,
those sometimes misplaced,
to get the others attention,
while misreading the signals given
for me to listen just a little
to what the other is trying to say.
Perhaps hell is like that
everyone talking but no one listens
each is just a cardboard figure
to be placed where needed.
It is the attempt that causes the pain
frustration and sometimes heartache.
The other is simply that,
different, unique, inner directed,
emotional
rational
irrational
in one wonderful package.
