Intelligent Mind

When you are blessed with an intelligent mind People are always three steps behind The talk on their breaks Makes my head ache How much meaning is there in what you ate for dinner last night or how much sleep you got For God's sake What about the rising of the Phoenix or how many more planets we've discovered Why carpet fibers tickle babies noses and are toxic Why molecules shrink when under pressure Why space time travel could be possible in the near future Why artists have an affinity for rhyming Is it in their genes So many things to talk about than what you had for dinner

Indeed so, Holly. Banal conversation, such a waste of time, when one's mind could be fed with richer things. Nice write, enjoyed. Viv x
