I Can Mind My Own Business Somewhere Else

You talking to me?

'No.
Not necessarily.
Why? '

You seem able to pick my thoughts.
And expound upon them.

'I was actually talking to myself.'

Well,
I wish you speak up.
At least allow me to interfere,
In your discussion.
I have a few comments I'd like to suggest.

'But I am not speaking to you! '

And what difference does that make?
I have other things to do than to waste my time.
You want to hear what I have to say or not?

'No.
Not necessarily.
Why? '

Who cares?
I can mind my own business,
Somewhere else!
