Busybody

If you saw a person
busy busy busy,
but constantly forgetting
what to do,
where to be,
would you not tell them of the existence of diaries?

And what if they were to take great offence,
call you foul names for your interference?
Would you persist in your urgent description?
You could make things worse: They may end up dismissing 
the whole concept of diaries, or worse still avoiding 
all those who carry them!

And whether or not they've considered buying one
is quite beside the the point, which is.. 
incidentally;
And I need your complete attention here,
to make this completely clear;

Absolutely none of your business.
