My best arguments are with myself.
I place my prejudgments on a shelf
and have a good look at every side
where thoughtless views seem to collide.
As logical as I try to be
I point out things the way I see
and then I assume another view
and see things different when I’m through.
The Devil’s advocate I become
even if that view seems very dumb
but it helps me see what I might miss
overlooked in a world of bliss.
Each argument I both win and lose
but the best answer I can choose
and walk away all the better
with my mind freed from a fetter.

That is, if you don't hear voices inside your head, then...well...you know...

Don't worry about the argument with yourself, remember, it will also make you a better writer.
Cheers and have a happy 4th.
