a get a sense of not belonging as I read your poem...detached from reality almost. A contemplative read.

Well beyond the obvious not sure what you're going for here, there's probably some deeper meaning. Depression maybe? Troubled mind, troubled heart, troubled stomach? Myriad things can be read into it. Hope you have a great weekend

All what you've said really, probably not so much the troubled stomach, being there but not being there, not taking part, adrift from what's going on. You're right though a myriad of things can be read into it. I wrote it during a time of depression, there's just something about it I always thought. Silly but meaningful. Thanks Tom.
