The man gazed at her
And said ”I never loved another.”
But to me he looked like a wolf
About to eat his grandmother.
In the midst of all this
I’m on the adduction machine.
Another fifty pounds of steel,
And I’ll lose my spleen.
The staff had the paramedics
Guarding the door.
They took knee-guy away
And put him on Albuterol.
After this session
I’m home and distracted,
I read FBI warrants,
And guess what’s redacted.
