January 18: Sidewalk Talk.

It's not what your saying,
It's what you're implying,
The explicit, sounds sweet,
The implicit, demeaning,
The sum isn't equal,
The parts don't fit,
The lie is spun,
A heart isn't won,
Confidence lost.

----------

A square of pavement,
A snippet of talk,
A call for honesty,
An admission of guilt.

----------

Check down, admit defeat,
stopped. at the start.
Step up, accept risk,
finish. at the end.
Under stress, invite pain,
winning. in the middle.
