GETTING  CUT  OFF

It’s happening more and more:

this being cut off when I start

telling one of my stories.

Have they heard it before?

I don’t think so – but maybe that’s

it – or have I become boring?

Hitting 80,  I don’t want to be

shut off or shut up or shut out.

Hey, I still have things to say.

How about you? Do you have

things to say? Or do you feel

you’ve been cut off from talking too?
