   the thing Is

to be or not to be 

Is that really a thing babe

he could hear her roll eyes over the telephone her voice however wasnt patronising

                                                                                        Yes Papa, things you think aren’t things often are . . really.

Not yanking my chain

I wouldn’t. 

            she didnt he could take her word to the bankafter after he confirmed it he was a born sceptic felt social media homophily was tearing things apart the love of the same friends share with friends and they take them at their wordBAM gospel  how shit was dispensed thoughtlessly 

                                                             he preferred individuality due diligence  he made sure he could cite sources it was exhausting  but nobody could finger him for passing along something that wasnt true

  

So coloured ribbons hang from the ceiling Cirque du Soleil stuff

Cirque du Soleil, exactly.

For women to workout on  apparatus

Yes, it’s called aerial yoga.

Kinda like poles some strippers use in their performancetruth be known never did see a stripper pole-dance

YeahPapa . truth be known . . I didn’t need to know that.

Ive always told ya all men are pigs To varying degrees   Im no different

Yes you have always said, since I was a little girl.

Its been important to me you know who I am who I am as a man beyond being your father particularly since our relationship will be adult longer than the time you were a child

Yes, as you’ve said since I was a girl.

Nice you listened to me

she laughed gayly 

it was infectious

he laughed too despite not knowing what he was laughing about

  her laughter simmered 

                           Yes, I listen to you . . however, truth be known, whenever we talk I dominate our conversation; least I can do eh?

his turnhis laughter erupted now that he knew what he was laughing at

  subsiding 

             Yeswhell you have the knack for gab

I do.

     I really do.
