Speak to Me There are lots of normal people that you love to meet and greet, then there’s the ones, as they get near, you try to cross the street. You know their endless rantings will drive you round the bend, why is it that these type of folk treat all just like a friend? I know I’m one of these queer folk who pester everyone, but they’re not friends, I know that most would rather I be gone. Why is it then that I insist in stopping you to talk, and make full sure I’ve had my say, before I let you walk? Is it because I think I know some things that you do not, or just because I really feel that you like me a lot? Maybe my thirst for knowledge is what I have to gain, or hope that you will sympathise with all my earthly pain. You never know, maybe I think my preaching will get through to help you lead far better lives in everything you do. But by your faces, I can tell I haven’t got there yet, I know what you all think or me, that I’m a sad old get. So tell me why I speak to all I meet each single day and people scatter everywhere if I should come their way? The answers plain, now don’t you know? It isn’t just a fad, the reasons very clear to see… I’m simply ‘Raving Mad’! Ivor G Davies The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last. It lives the full spectrum of time, the future, the present and past. |

I think we're all a little knee deep in fantasy... you chant a song so well.... |

I am one who would rather just smile, look the other way, and keep on walking without saying "hello, how are you?" I am shy and hardly ever make the first contact but your poem got me thinking of trying to be more outgoing |
