Damn-Near-Invisible Guy

He's nearly near-enough to nigh

To be close enough to get by

And nearly catch somebody's eye

He's damn-near-invisible guy

And nearly near-enough to nigh

Were anyone ever near by

And nearly nigh cast him an eye

It is really hard when we are ignored. We feel like a fly on the wall observing, no one sees us. So close and yet so far.

Yes. I have been that person my whole life. Thanks so much, as always, for the comment ! ~Jim
