"Average Poet"
Mr. Sociable
He is graceful and charming
completely disarming
essential to any social affair
obligingly devout
mingling about
dispensing kind words here and there.
Hands reach to touch him
elbows to nudge him
eyes seek a glimpse of his smile
he’s a man with flair,
obvious savoir-faire
a portrait of tactful style.
But sometimes I wonder
if deep down under
he tires of this endless game?
I think his façade
is becoming slipshod
I don’t think he’s living up to his name
for I detected a hint
of a reticent glint
in his otherwise jovial eyes
perhaps his desire
is to simply retire
and watch all the fuss pass him by.
By Robert Cameron Hazelton
