Listening is vastly overrated.
After all, what does it get you but
Community, and, thus remunerated,
A warm and fuzzy feeling in your gut?
What does it bring but happiness and joy
And problems solved that seemed beyond your reach?
What does its absence but frustrate, annoy,
And drown all blisses in a tub of bleach?
Why should we listen? No reason at all.
It has no purpose but the common one:
That hearing others when they chance to call
Means we are human, and that all men shun
Those who ignore their fellows. Listen? Never.
I'd rather talk, and keep talking forever.
