I’m laughing at humanity,
At those who live in vain
They call my love “insanity”
To make themselves feel sane
They say they know reality
Not seeing what is real
They laugh at my formality
Not knowing what I feel

They say they have agility
But all they have is age
They brag about stability
While acting on a stage
They tolerate stupidity
To make themselves feel smart
They envy my ability
To have an open heart

YEAH!

I love this poem, alway have, always will.....the flow is perfect, the rhyme scheme impeccable, and the subject matter suits my tastes nicely.

thanks Master
