poem 2000


by dog e relaford



the sun is in the sky
a cloud passes by
a man walks down the street
with brown shoes on his feet

his brown shoes fill with disgust
the humans he can not trust
who silently pass him by
beneath the blue sky

the man with brown shoes walks along
in his heart he sings a song
about only wishing to be free
but today it is not to be

he has an appointment with fate
and does not wish to be late
fate is his master
so he walks a little faster

he left his lonely room
prepared to meet his doom
but if he should be spared
a speech he has prepared

stating in no uncertain terms
that he is an unworthy worm
grateful to all whom came before
as he stands upon this unknown shore
