I saw an old man walking down the street, Mumbling about the nearby creek. Long messy hair, Living without a care. I watched him walk around, Wearing a Burger King crown, Dozenly tattooed, With a shirt, “I have canoed.” He asks, “Bif Naked, Bif Naked, Why’s she never naked?” He totes a rubber ducky, Winks, thinks he’s lucky. He dances ‘bout madly, “You all live so sadly.... Yeah, I get booty!” I offer my smoothie. Turns, ”Shut up you fool! Get back on your stool!” Back to me, “Sorry Charlie, Too much barley.” He laughs, grins a grin, Then sighs, “I have sin.” He looks above, Says, “On Mars, they sure love.” He looks at me, "Son, only you have seen.” If you share this scene, Don’t be obscene.” I never saw him after that, But I’m sure I will, with another funky hat. |

Don't know how this slipped through the cracks. I liked much, the reading of this. I have known such people, street people, that seem to be resolutely content in their madness. You do not seem to judge, which is refreshing. ~wranx The shortest distance between two points... |

This is original. I liked it very much. The style befits the subject. Well done. [This message has been edited by WhiteRose (08-16-2002 12:24 PM).] |
