OH HENRY!

A rusted bike chained to a grey  fence,
The story behind it and its sad events
James wanted his usual treats,
Bubble gum ,chocolate and other sweets.
School work was done he had the time,  
gathered a nickel,
a quarter,
a dime.
The ride was short he'd be there soon,
Pass the bar called The Last Saloon.
He paid the old man as he did before ,
said "thanks Mister"  
as he headed to the door.
The dented van, tinted windows and all,
James turned around as his name was called.
OH HENRY bar crushed on the cold pavement below,
gummy bears ran over that he was just sold.
Swiped off the street the vulture never fails,
A boys bike rusted after three long years.
