Pain of Forgotten Man
From the shallow mind of a cynic
Woe be the pain of the forgotten man
In life's deepest shade of addiction
Driven by the desire to be
Someone's Raggedy Andy
Now an old soul speaking to the dead
In life's deepest shade of addiction
Playing pick-up Sticks with a shadow
And screaming curses of insanity
Now a lost genius in a glass house
From the shallow mind of a cynic
Woe be the pain of the forgotten man
In life's deepest shade of addiction
Driven by the desire to be
Someone's Raggedy Andy
Now an old soul speaking to the dead
In life's deepest shade of addiction
Playing pick-up Sticks with a shadow
And screaming curses of insanity
Now a lost genius in a glass house
From the shallow mind of a cynic

Dear A,
I think you have written a piece that most of us have done and thought at some point. I can relate to the cynicism in this piece. For me, it’s a lonely place but one of comfort as well. Great writing. H🌷
