Tony Jolley - Why Not Ask: 'Why Not? '

I’m still as simple [shallow? ] br Still as ‘deep’ br And certainly still as short br [If not shorter, courtesy of the inevitable age-induced br Compression of inter-vertebral cartilage]; br But I genuinely didn’t know br I could be considered embarrassing. br Questioning the questionable: yes. br Railing occasionally against the faintly ridiculous: that too. br Just having the temerity to take the time and trouble to ask br ‘Why? ’ or indeed, ‘Why not? ’ br Well, why not ask ‘Why not? ’? br What’s wrong with that when it’s not right? br br Maybe it’s the consequence of crossing the continent br But I think br [Lest it be too presumptuous of me], br Not. br It’s just me being me, br Having more of an analytical mind than I thought br And perhaps less of suppression button than I ought.
