Why do I behave the way I do?
I wondered as I read and article in i newspaper last Saturday.
A feeling of rolling through life like a pin ball in a pin ball machine – jostling in all directions:
Being on the outside
Looking in everywhere I go
A piece belonging to a different puzzle.
Improvisation is king for me,
When something is not available,
Rather like a one-person show,
Playing two characters
Dressed half and half for their
Respective parts.
Life’s a gamble –
Without setting foot; on or off
Into a betting environment;
Each situation has a bearing –
On the length of time elapsed
From the wager to the final result.
Listening to phone-in shows –
On the radio –
There’s enough people calling
For me to just sit back and listen
To the various topics being discussed
I might add to the conversation –
If I phone in –
Or detract from it –
Risking feeling mortified – Never wanting to listen to the show
EVER AGAIN!
I rather never meet celebrities –
FACE – TO – FACE –
For the same reason –
Save the magic by listening, or
Reading about them instead!
Imagination is best for me…
Being inspired by them!
