Strange things have always attracted me like side shows at the fair, "Lobster Boy", "The Bearded Lady", etc.. Strange people attract me for some reason. Maybe it's me!!! Oh, no!!

Love ya!

There are many narrow-minded goofs in this world.

I like your take on this subject. Why should we ever care what strange things others like?

"Opposites attract" adds fuel to the stories we write to entertain those stuck in a narrow-minded groove.

I always felt that I was a square peg in a round hole when it comes to this world and all its rules. Today I am glad that I don't follow rules. I don't judge others, for we all have our patterns of right and wrong, and only our conscience can dictate which is which for us.
We are such strange creatures aren't we. I agree, we never truly know what will capture us, thankyou for sharing such thought provoking poem. I like it, Have a great weekend Ron.

As Spock would say, "Infinite diversity In infinite combinations." Although we can be repulsed by certain things, we should strive to keep an open mind.But I fear mankind is far to hardwired to get out of the ruts they're stuck in. Especially when it comes to ideology. Especially when we have leaders that sow fear, hate, and doubt.
A great poem with a great message.

For someone, such as myself, who takes great pains to detail an idea until it is exhausted, I find your poem intriguing, mostly for what it doesn't say and I wish it did say more. Feeling ambivalent and not quite sure what was intended.

Other races, ok. Other species, no thank you! But it's an interesting poem.

Let's hear it for instinct. Your piece of wordsmithing should muster up in every reader the need to examine themselves and no we're hard wired with instinct as a positive tool, not something we set aside when risk and gamble temp us. Great read.
