poets ..relatives ..friends

friends.... poets.... family

I started life
with a large family strewn all over,
over 200

each so individualistically individual ,
it made me marvel..

thus I undertook the study of the human mind...
some were very rich
many very, very, very poor
but it made no difference to me

(even though then I was very okay…
yeah rich,)

as they all did to me endear.

now I am left with a handful
I can count on finger tips
third generations’ kids,
whose nappies I did change
when they were young...

today they are seemingly rich
they say you...
my who.....

as tables turned
I became poor..
not rich, no more…

the poetic world I dwell with
seemingly happy,
very much anonymous too,

am happy with friends like you…

Only because like you I started life with 200 and I don't like some of them much and the others are still united to the others so I cant associate with them either.
Happy to stand alone now
