ROY VINCENT PLEADS "PLEASE DON'T ASK ME TO BE NORMAL."...

Please don’t ask me to be normal,

Don’t want to be like that.

Don’t want to live on a large estate and own a dog and cat.

Don’t want a missus and kids and such and holidays by the sea.

Just want to be what I’ve always been –

An individual just like me.

There aren’t so many of us left you know,

A dying breed they say,

Don’t own an iPod or Blackberry, the thought just turns me grey.

Don’t appear on Facebook, and I’d never ever be gay!

Just want to be what I’ve always been –

An individual – that’s the way.

That’s the way to be happy, that’s the way to be free.

Don’t go on chartered air-flights,

With my face jammed down on my knee,

Don’t want to have to queue for the loo, desperate for a pee,

Eating curled up sandwiches,

And drinking lukewarm tea.

I’m far too old to be normal,

To have to conform and such.

And even though I’m eighty-nine, I still don’t need a crutch.

I am what I am through where I have been,

Through what I have done and what I have seen –

Yet still I remember my years that were ‘green’.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW JUST WHERE I HAVE BEEN, WHAT I HAVE DONE AND WHAT I HAVE SEEN, YOU CAN READ EVERYTHING IN THE BOOK THAT I HAVE WRITTEN

"LISTENING TO THE SILENCES"

IT IS FREE AND MAY BE DOWNLOADED AT

www.royvincent.org  

READ IT AND FIND OUT JUST WHAT HAD HAPPENED HERE...

THEN READ SOME MORE, AND DISCOVER HOW I CAME TO LIVE 

HERE

I HAVE OFTEN BEEN TOLD THAT IT IS A 'GOOD READ'

SO, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR.....?
