Today's Poem

You know.....him


You know that bloke who's been
Around for years, the one everybody
Sees....no one knows
The one we've all past by forever

We strolled with complacent familiarity
Couldn't tell you his name, infact nothing
About his life, loves, home, work....
Assumption that he's down and totally
Out....done for could be imminent
For all anyone cares.

Oh yes it's him again.

Oh havn't seen him for a while

Someone said....."He's still around somewhere"

Someone else said "Didnt you know he used
To be someone"

Wasn't he always someone....?

Did you know he died?

Well actually....no
did anyone?
