Have fun, sell some words
Slip in the words that no one knows,
see if the hearer is able to hear.
Look at their face to see if it shows,
if they're not distanced but if they're near.
Drop in a phrase that is rarely heard,
watch or listen to know if they were ever told.
Put in something spontaneous or absurd.
listen to know if your words were sold.

A great technique and a fun poem all in one. I do that from time to time and in a poem as well. It can tell if anyone is really reading or just copying the remarks of someone else. A wonderful read and a fave
I will be honest, you have used some I had to look up. I have learned a lot. Thank you, keep them coming.
