Submission

Can I create you more than you create me?
Or, can I influence, persuade you to
listen to me when I speak without
interruption: let me talk to you.
Basically, whoever talks more exerts
more of an influence.
In this talking there is projection.
In this listening there is succombing.
People want to project and overcome,
or to be right,
which doesn't need truculence
like projection does:
but we do not ask which is more ethical
and which is more concealing,
concealment giving power through mystery:
no one likes to be overcome,
but someone has to do it,
although people expect one to always
overcome and project while, at least
I believe, one should submit
most of the time, although when
a conversation arises,
something you would like them to know
should be said, even if it involves overcoming,
but remember, as they will, they will
use it against you.
