Has You Seen This Man?  How About

the Man He Used to Be?

 


“Calling all cars, calling all cars!  Be on the lookout


For a stumbling fool who has completely lost it!


Now, when we say ‘stumbling’, we’re not talking ‘walking’;


Although that too; no, we’re talking life-path


He was on the correct path, if it was a touch boring,


But a swerve into his lane, and it was all-she-wrote


Everything he cared about gone in a twist of metal


Well, not everything, but he certainly veered onto an unexpected path


Now it’s “hang on, shut up, and just watch the scenery whip past"


He’s just a passenger on a long, strange trip


Suspect may be armed with sarcasm; stay back,


May say the wrong thing some--nay--most of the time


Suspect may become agitated, and out of control


If sighted, do not attempt to apprehend, or reason,


With him; please dial 911 and notify the proper authorities!"
