I saw a madman

I saw a madman today -
Had to stop and observe him
To see if any difference of him-
Apart from me existed-
And was astounded ;
A pair of legs, left not being right
Right not being left, he had -
Five toes on each he had, just like mine
He had a body of pure flesh, like mine
And I saw some six packs -
Was tempted to touch, but was scared.
He had a pair of hards, with five fingers
on each; thumb to pinkie.
He had a mouth, yeah! 'cause I saw him speak -
But the words were not that audible;
He spoke just like the brother possessed by the holy spirit.
He has eyes, ears, nose,hair- just like mine. And I marvelled.
But one thing that I didn't manage to catch a glimpse of -
To which I really wanted to; was his anatomy.
To which I believed without a shadow of a doubt-
He had one just like mine.
I looked at him from head to toe-
Looked my own self from head to toe-
And I saw my own self in him; And I loved him
'Cause I felt I was loving my own damn self.

I saw a madman today-
And found out he wasn't mad-
But just in a state of being different from mine.
