CASUAL CONVERSATION?<\/p>\n

You say casual conversation?
\nI am not so sure if I really can,
\nIt is not my intention to boast,
\nBut I am a deep-thinking man.<\/p>\n

Engaging in just idle chatter,
\nWell, it is really not my thing,
\nI prefer more meatier stuff,
\nDo you care to take a swing?<\/p>\n

So many interesting topics,
\nWhere we can use our mind,
\nGo ahead pick your subject,
\nI will then respond in kind.<\/p>\n

I don’t mean to sound heavy,
\nNo, I am not a boring mule,
\nI simply believe stimulation,
\nIs just so wonderfully cool.<\/p>\n

Well, now you know my thots,
\nI hope you will likewise agree,
\nI am going to kick back now,
\nAs I patiently wait and see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
