Title:			THE DANGLING CONVERSATION	(Simon & Garfunkle)

		                      
		It's a still life water color
		                 
		Of a now late afternoon
		                            
		As the sun shines through the curtain lace
		                           
		And shadows wash the room
		
		And we sit and drink our coffee
		                              
		Cast in our indifference, like shells upon the shore
		        
		You can hear the ocean roar
                                                             
		In the dangling conversation, and the superficial sighs
		                         
		The borders of our lives

		                      
		And you read your Emily Dickenson
		              
		And I my Robert Frost
		                         
		And we note our place with bookmarkers
		                              
		That measure what we've lost
		
		Like a poem porely written
		                            
		We are verses out of rhythm, Couplets out of rhyme
		   
		In syncopated time
		                                              
		And the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs
		                              
                Are the borders of our lives

		                          
		Yes we speak of things that matter
		                      
		With words that must be said
		              
		Can analysis be worthwhile
		       
		Is the theatre really dead
		
		And how the room is softly faded
		                              
		And I only kiss your shadow, I cannot feel your hand
		         
		You're a stranger now unto me
		                                                  
		Lost in the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs
		                              
                In the borders of our lives
