Conversing Solo

The way to spot a wacko
Once was really very clear.
He’d be in a conversation
When nobody else was near.

But today, you can’t rely on
Simply how some folks appear.
If a person is conversing solo,
Peek inside his ear.

More than likely, he is chatting
On a cell phone he can hear,
Getting signals that are beaming
From within the atmosphere.

This is helpful to the crazies
For they do not have to fear
They’ll attract undue attention
In this brave new tech frontier.

Made me smile Ilene you have such a wonderful way observing what goes on in the world and creating a fabulous rhyme. I used to find I would always get the 'nutter' sit next to me on the bus - I must attract them lol - now I pretend to be asleep and they don't bother you!:-) hugs Jan xx
