Sure poor

The boy that had put the crack in
the ice at the age of four was
now doing four for both of the
former,

he lay down
shut down
slept with a frown

until he was free to go
out with the flow
where would he go
he knew not this world
it had become a very different show,

still, he was
given a bedsit to live in

9-5
in a bar dive
and one night a week to be himself,

still
he was alive,

three months passed by
he'd still not told a lie
but couldn't help wonder why
it was the same as before
-a bore,

a real
