make small talk only

you hear people say,

whatever you do, don't talk about

politics

or religion, at a party,

don't bring up racism,

or wars,

or anything

important.

keep it to small talk,

keep

it peaceful and calm.

don't disagree, just smile and

be quiet.

keep your opinions to yourself.

go along

and ignore.

tip toe on that carpet

of eggshells.

sounds a lot like my

last marriage.
