the silence is loud

sometimes it grows so loud he covers his ears with his hands

and when even his hands cant stop the loud silence he drops them to either side of his mouth and uses them like a megaphone and screams SHADDUP!!

and sometimes he has to scream SHADDUP!! several times before it pays attention to him

then like a dumb beast it looks at him with some confusionsome sorrow 

and he feels badly for a moment

You forget yourself

You forget how loud you become

Itd been different if it were only youyou only had to be concerned for yourself But youre with me I dont often disturb youdo I

briefly silence shakes its shaggy head side to side no

No I know I dont Thank you for acknowledging me

it nods once quickly in agreement

he know this so he always make a point of not to blink or look away

he wants it to know he sees it 

he wants silence to know it means a lot to him

Thank you

he hears it

You say thank you a lot it says

Yes I want to be polite

he hears it

Is that because I forget to be polite to you

No Im polite

Do you know what you say almost as much as you say Thank you silence says

I dont know that I do  No I dont

Would you like to know I dont want you to think Im listening to your conversations  that Im eavesdropping

I dont know

If you had to say yes or no

Yes

What if I had asked If you had to say no or yes

Yes

Very well

Almost saying as much as you say Thank you

You say I love you

I love you

Yes You say I love you Almost exactly as many times as you say Thank you

Thank you I wouldnt have known

Youre welcome silence said

Ill leave you be 

Youll let me knowof course when Im too loud

Yes Of course Ill let you know

silence sauntered silently off

Wall Street Journal reports today

                                                 "Mr. Trump has told people (who are these people  these they  these Ive heard say  the Fake President cant say Ive read . . ) he wants his signature to appear on the direct payment checks that will go out to many Americans in the coming weeks, according to an administration official.

"The White House didn't comment. The White House is gaggedcouldnt find its ass with both its hands

"Normally, a civil servant—the disbursing officer for the payment center—would sign federal checks, said Don Hammond, a former senior Treasury Department official."

catch-word  normally

the President is abnormal

Young Frankenstein

that sudden thoughtlessbreathless confederation  pleasethank you  boggled his mind

where it ever came from

who played it first

he could rationalise understand its why

he never used it 
                  which isnt to say it didnt occur to him

but he wasnt a thoughtlessbreathless kind of person
                                                        which also isnt to say he didnt stub his toe on several more than a few who mentioned it

which while in their face he became a kneejerk thoughtlessbreathless person himself 

No

every pleasethank you who crossed him
                                           No was the answer

an answer he never stuck around to tender his reason why

because again

if someone told him No 

a No which usually concluded his asking Maybe youd like to go out some time 

usually a girl above his class

which meant he didnt have a car he didnt have the clothingthe shoes 

he had a work ethic though

and that he felt transcended material things  and why he never hesitated to ask a pretty girl out

his face was fortunately formed

he favoured physical work

those worked wellwere introductions enough

a foot in the door 

he never did have a line

he could take a No

as his father said There’s always more fish in the sea.

his mother rebuking him So, I was a fish in the sea?

Baby  his father smiled
                          watching he never knew if that smile was only for his mother or was also meant to amuse him Son, do as I say, not necessarily as I do.
                                        You were the best fish in the sea.

he could take a No

no reason necessary
                       and therefore he wasnt obliged to offer one

he was baffled when people did things he wouldnt

it was somewhat entertaining but let them
                                             that was their prerogative their choice

people ought to choose more often

for themselves

thereby when someone asked him to do something pleasethank you

he choose No
               and walking away from them they were usually too absorbedstill talking to his back their voice growing softer and softer as he went and walking he replayed their conversation over in his mind
                                                                                               amused he eventually recognisedat least where he thought they thought  he was going to jump through their hoop

pleasethank you

who was that patient zeroin todays parlance
                                                who gave pleasethank you legs
