I Met a Mad Man On the Road One Day
I met a mad man
on the road
one day
I knew he was mad
I'd heard people
say
Do your warders know
that you are out here
all alone?
I asked him most politely
in my very best sarcastic
tone
"You think that I am mad!"
He replied in a voice most
amused
"Well that may be the case
but it is you who is confused
for you are out here on your own
you see
I am not really here!
Do you not realize that
you are talking to yourself
my dear?"
