he thought he could learn by osmosis it was just another of his many neurosis lazy would be a better description Mad Magazine was his favorite subscription
he used and abused everything he could it didn’t matter if were bad or good one was too many, a thousand never enough he could handle it, he was really really tough
everything hurt when he hit his bottom he could not believe how low he had fallen the Judge concluded that he needed some help his response was to let out a despondent yelp
the therapist recommended a twelve step program he needed to start cramming for his final exam his sponsor noted that osmosis would not work he just needed to stop being a jerk
he was asked to follow a few simple suggestions to be honest, no lying, when answering questions keep coming back was all they said clear the cobwebs from out of the head
he became the miracle his life was more than allegorical to carry the message became his advocation every day a cause for celebration
for many years he touched many lives his legend now lives in the local archives

Poem:
.
looking, lost, trying to find fantasyland
this ugly, smelly reality I cannot stand
transport me to a faraway zone
let me hide by using a clone
let’s create a new space and call it Love
built with the blessings received from above
air and noise pollution may not exist
the sky above always rainbow kissed
soft melodies provided by the birds and the bees
herbal aromas wafting about on a fresh breeze
every trail and path lined with a display floral
the horizon represented by a bucolic mural
a sirens scream, a grieving mothers wail
back to earth, dreams wasted to no avail
a bang and a thud, everything used and abused
only the crazy from this world are excused
to cope, one must adjust the altitude
work hard at keeping a good attitude
let reality suck, if it must
let go, relax, in God you must trust
