I think that someone should invent

(And I would be quite glad)

A painless little questionnaire

To check that your not mad

.

A simple twenty questions

Is all that it would take

To say you’re fairly normal

Or a crazy old fruitcake

.

If all the people filled one in

The results could be collated

We could have a central register

And get certificated

John

Do you really want us all to have that nasty piece of paper, someone is not reading these poems on this site as there were six pages in the lonely place today, this is one of them and it doesn't belong unreported. A neat little piece of madnessssss. I am due a tablet soon, Keep up the good work, Yours Ian.T
