The Introverted Species
From the book of poetry 'Animal Souls' by Michael Fisher
Some people make me ill
If I have to watch them fill
The air with discolour
I speak of blackness in their hearts
That flows with no end
Bitter clichés and cynicisms
I find hard to bear
But I don't say anything better
Only the way I feel makes me realize
Just how sick I am
And how hard it would be
To get help here
It is a complex wish
That there could be communication
But it is for a simple reason
Why it's not so
How can they love others
When they obviously
Do not love themselves?
