Cave living...


Poem Artwork

I live in a cave,
I am just a slave,
To my own idiosyncrasies,
I am just one of the many senior crazies,
I am but me, myself & I,
I can’t tell you exactly why…

My mind a bore,
Right down to its very core,
Within myself I look for more,
But it does not seem to exist,
Do I really live, I know not,
I truly find it hard to with others coexist…

If not for writing & reading,
I would be much more needing,
I don’t want to be herein misleading,
I just want you to understand this my pleadings,
To you I do plead misunderstanding,
Mayhaps you can help me reintegrate into society,
Help me in my, so to speak, emergency landing…

Perhaps, you should socialize more...a little at a time.

Always,

I've got my man cave, reserved for my "me time". The times I need to be alone, so you're not alone in that regard.

It's not just you, Ed. I have spoken to many people who are preferring solitude to coexistence more and more - I am also one such person. I find a great many people are taxing to be around.. I have a feeling it happens when our goals change - When we no longer want or need to be part of the rat-race.
