The 'Poem A Day' Project ~ Day 252 Poem by Flying Lemming

Space is an important thing in everything around
Space between people or activities or sound
Many see a therapist for one reason or more
But who would if ‘the rapist’ was written on his door
When someone’s talking to you, don’t you find it gross
When they are clearly standing just a bit too close
Personal space is needed in any relationship
Any over crowding can lead straight to a trip
But so can vast remoteness, being too far away
Space is hard to judge sometimes in every kind of way
But the space that I can’t figure out, that brings me close to tears
Is the space that the world leaders seem to have between their ears
