Mad Genius

Imagine at a later date the gift you then find yourself lucky enough to have been blessed with Becomes or turns into a curse Causing nothing but endless inner turmoil and torture of the mind and soul Because no 1 is on the same wavelength as you And every idea and thought that you come up with can barely be understood even slowly broken down in order to explain Would or could that not then possibly lead to someone far more intelligent or knowledgeable Being driven from genius to Insanity wondering what exactly is the point Of knowing or figuring out the answers to life's fundamental questions If there is not an actual audience or anybody out there Interested or willing to listen to anything he has to say They can teach us and we can learn

A lot of sense here Christopher, you like to engage the audience as do I, but the wavelength is indeed the issue, timing is another, you really should enter more free verse contests, your well capable of wining and placing, you certainly get more feedback from them especially if they place, cheers David

I do try from time to time David but point in case . I feel like I am on a totally different wavelength miss the mark and am very fickle and so get demoralized far to easy
