"Darling dearest, what are you thinking about?"

"I am thinking about  'unspoken thought.' "

"Can you put that into words?"

"I can put it into verse."

"I'm all ears."

"I should be so lucky."

"Very funny. Your poem, please."

"If all the unspoken thought
 of all  were bound in books
 or electronically organized
 it would be a universe
 of what really is not–
 not the construct
 that we live in."

"But we can 
  pretend."

"That's your ending, not mine."

"My bad. I kowtow to the poet
  and pound my flesh in appreciation."

"You? Kowtow to me?
  If only that were true, 24/7."

"We can always pretend, dear."

"And I'll pretend I didn't hear that."
