To Talk, Or Not To Talk



Needing to talk, or wanting to talk, inside my imagination,
Creates a surge of fantasy, which involves my fascination;
Resolve the passive need to do what mind would rather not,
With active want to seed, a revolving tape that's caught;

Being withdrawn from fantasy and my fascination,
Produces a deep wishing well elvivening my imagination;
Procuce the active need to do what the brain would rather,
Beleaguring favored involvement benignly gathered;

Pervading a feel of what is real and maybe out of luck,
Provides the thought of an engine reversed and stuck;
To talk or not to talk is not really the real found query,
Rather to produce some valuable substance the mystery.
