Who are you, anyway? (26/11/13,700,000,021)

[Boss]

Who are you, anyway
for bec and tok


Why do I care so much?
Who are you, anyway?
You get headaches
You piss too
Get pain in the gut
Enjoy Led Zep
You can't spell every word
dance to every song

Who are you, anyway?
But my brother, my sister

Are you a 'normal'?
Think wheelchairs are for fun?
That Bipolar is a problem
for the accursed?
That phobia only
afflicts the mad (whoever they are)?
That neurofibromatosis
will never invade
your brother's frail body?
That suicide and drunk drivers
are someone elses problem
That the British American Tobacco Company
can take your father's cash
then kill him?
Does it only happen to 'losers'?
Who are you to judge me?
Who gave you the right?
God? Your ethics? Luck?

Most people on this forum
I suspect
are university educated
I am not
But know
there is a massive
undercurrent of willing souls
begging to be let in
to our party
I speak to them
That guy building scaffolding
that girl behind the bar
And I know them
as people
who just want to love
watch the moon at dawn
and have children

Intelligence is not being cute
with words or ideas,
intelligence is only
one splinter of Love

No one watches me
I stand alone
with an old faithful dog
a piece of paper
and a pen

I do, Adam, and it's good to see you coming around more.
