He is walking and talking…
And cursing his shadow!
He has lost his job
His fortune and glow
He is running and yelling
Afraid of his shadow!
He has debt from gambling
The collectors, tonight will show up
He is yelling and screaming
And punching his shadow!
Is he high on drugs?
No one might ever know
The acid test on life
The inter-connectivity of life
Combining to devastating effect to produce what?
This Domino Effect?
For some, this experience will manifest as …VICTORY
For others, as …DOOM
How do you explain that?
Bonfire of the vanities?
A series of unfortunate event?
Bless your heart, if it’s built of steel
Bless your heart, if you see through the fog
Bless your heart, if crisis comes to you, and you never stop smiling
Over the bridge he throws himself off
Free of a job
Free of debt
Free of drugs
Free at last
May His Soul Rest In Peace
