Are you really going there?

of course he was going there

it was his Achilles heel 

                         for the time being

he might complain to him it was too soon however he was understanding throughout he listened when asked he offered insights 

                 he was there steadfast for him as his divorce evolved he remained unsparing observant honest

didnt pull his punches 

so he protests 

              but thats a deflection briefly sidestepping the harsh reality of the choices he made he didnt have his ear to the groundcould have been more objective 

                                             he got what he wanted 

Really?

I’m only repeating your words, you ought to listen to yourself when you speak, or . . stop, think . then speak.

You are unsparing.

One of my best, indelible traits, and I say that because I’m also unsparing with myself; it’s nice to have company.

You’re funny.

Thanks, black humour, my favourite; you were saying . .

I was saying that my Ex turned out to be an expensive . .

Say it. I’ve already said it for you, pretend you’re quoting me, may be less painful.

She was an expensive fuck.

She was.

           How many times ya get laid?

It started out hot and heavy.

Yah? 

      What happened?

I don’t know . . it just petered out. 

You didn’t think before you opened your mouth, did you?
