PEOPLE WATCHING

11 Nov 2021

As i sit on a bench in my beloved city of Liverpool I take time to admire the architecture that is in my surroundings Thereafter i start to people watch People walk from shop to shop in every direction And i dream up strange fictional life stories that are most unusual Although the sun is out and the suns warmth is radiating Out of the corner of my eye, i see what i would call a strange personage Wearing a long macintosh and a trilby hat pulled down to his eyes Could he be gathering information just like spies My attention is diverted to a couple looking into a jewelers window Are they innocently shopping for wedding rings Or are they casing the shop for a future robbery Or for some type of criminal situation Now it is time to leave i still people watch as i go on my way and imagine stories Tomorrow is a new day for people watching and new stories to invent.

I have a mental health illness and I was a inpatient in a private secure mental health hospital not because i was a danger to the public but because i myself was the only person who was in danger from me was myself and that will reflect in my poetry...
