sit down talk non stop

the girl has not stopped
talking since she sat down
reminds me of days passed
a few people in the history
of this life strange memory
brought up as girl talks on
and on still talking
right through as food arrives
is eaten and table cleared
still talking so glad to be sitting
on the other side of the room
watching her friend squirm
and you can tell he is ready to go
she isn’t done talking
I think the building could burn
to the ground
and she wouldn’t stop talking
