Just Like God, You Can’t Talk to a Person, but You Can Listen to Them
Human beings are social creatures
because even though
we can only ever talk to ourselves
it works better when we talk to ourselves
in the presence of others
so that we can hear
what they say to themselves
when it’s their turn
For while we can’t talk to other people
we can listen
and what we tell ourselves when it’s our turn
will tell them if we were
indeed
listening
