the traffic on (the?) M4

When we are together

elaborate witty jokes

or talks

decide to sign off for the time being.

Small talk takes a break

and runs away to the nearest woods.

(laughing out loud, I presume)

News of the day

are not new and not today's job

anymore

For he is around.

The list of questions

I gathered so carefully

unlists

and loses all the question marks

I want to be interesting

I want to enchant

I want to use all the little tricks

all the big words I know

But small ones

keep coming their way

and stop

and watch

and giggle

(I am sure)

Its him and me and silence.

"The traffic on (the?) M4

was awful today

wasn't it?"

not even that line would work

but hey, girl,

thanx for the tip.
