in a conversation
never ask questions
in a conversation
listen carefully to the person speaking
only speak when it is your turn
never interrupt
especially not under oath
must be a conversation
very sympathetic
with ethics encapsulated
without a pinch of venom
or tactics
appreciate the other person
speak quietly and honestly
be humorous and funny, you can
never confront your speaking partner
just be that patient part
always have the best for the other
all kinds of subjects are allowed
don’t use too difficult words
and not the dictionary
want to be Kramer’s, Oxford or Cambridge
appreciate the other, consider him / her as your drink florijn
(a tiny glass of Dutch gin)
never too long stories
the chance is then 99% failure….
this advice-poem is not perfect
no title, but with respect,
NOTE: One may always ask, but general polite rules, do not ask while conversing, but afterward.
