It Takes Two To Listen

-one to the other and back again.
It takes two to stop listening, unawares
they are doing so, for trying to think
what to say next, and after that
to talk over each others thoughts.

It takes two to cast blame,
one to cast the blame, the other
to have the blame cast upon them.
It takes two to stop, separate and reset
their positions, gift each other the space
that will allow both of them to start again.
