Fools Never Get The Message Poem by Ted Sheridan

Fools Never Get The Message

Rating: 4.6


A fool calls up his friends
but none of them answer their phone
because they don’t have the time
to be bothered by his stupid questions.
A fool pays a visit to his friends
but none of them acknowledge being home
because they don’t have the time
to be bothered by his stupid questions.
A fool writes some verses for his friends
but none of them ever read his poems
because they don’t have the time
to be bothered by his stupid questions.
The fool calls up his friends....to ask why?
