Nut magnet...

The people who come here have mental problems...

I waitress at my own diner
And characters abound
A lady told me yesterday
Mental problems
Are the common ground
Of the people who
Come to my place
And laughed I did, "He He"
Cause she could not be
More correct
If she'd swallowed
Cof-off-fee
Those who seek
The company
Of others not afraid
Of being themselves
Completely
"Come dine with us
You're safe"

-phonies not allowed...only the nuts...
