Meeting A Wise Man Poem by RIC BASTASA

he has thick glasses
and he talks about the world as an asylum
of mad poets and wise people gone mad
he is amazing
and i think he is one wise man
that i should listen

i followed his footstep
he says this is all leading to God
a cure to all my addictions
to whatever

i tried to walk beside him
but he has always been a fast walker
and so i just follow and follow him through
all the years of my life
so sad
i lost my interest about my own life
i have gone mad too

he did not mind at all
he only said, i am one kind of a fool!
