Dick-idiom # 60 - Loneliness
by Richard Lee King → (All Poetry by Richard Lee King)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

"Dick-idioms" are little philosophical gems I have penned over the years. The numbering sequence has no relationship to their importance, or pecking order; it's just my way to identify them.

This particular one comes from the experience of living alone for nearly 25 years before finding that perfect someone.

DICK-IDIOM # 60
 
 
 
LONELINESS
 
"It’s like a traffic
round-about.
 
If you miss your turn,
 
you just keep going
around in circles.”

Running around in circles is NOT fun. Loneliness is NOT fun. I'm glad neither of us is doing that any more.
