I love love<br />
but find people<br />
distracting.<br />
"Libra Man"<br />
by John Irvine<br />
My socks are<br />
geometrically arranged<br />
in colour gradients,<br />
washing on <strong>the</strong> line<br />
is pegged out in order<br />
<strong>of</strong> garment type<br />
in descending size<br />
left to right.<br />
Sex is vital<br />
marriage isn't<br />
and committment is<br />
for o<strong>the</strong>r people.<br />
I straighten<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r folk's pictures<br />
and become irritated<br />
when <strong>the</strong>y can't see<br />
my point <strong>of</strong> view.<br />
I'm only diplomatic<br />
because I abhor<br />
confrontation,<br />
and I have an opinion<br />
on everything.<br />
My mind is tidy<br />
pigeon-holed<br />
ordered<br />
sorted<br />
biased<br />
predilected<br />
pre-decided<br />
and indecisive.<br />
But I'm pleasant enough<br />
fair to <strong>the</strong> eye
