Poem
I was new at the Jewish senior home
In the center garden I saw old man read a tome
I asked his name, to start a conversation, 
"Marvin Klutznik", he replied, to my consternation.

I had paid so much to be in the place
The man I was speaking was a global disgrace
I felt like departing, but since not much life remained
I said to him: "Klutznik, you're forever shamed..."

I added, "How could you have been such a swine"
He said "Glad you asked, it took a long time
All these people saw a movie, none asked why
Its 65 years later, you're the first, what a guy!"

"Whoa" said I, "I saw this flick
You made an ass of yourself over a chick
It was disgusting, and we threw rice
You sow your oats; Jews pay the price.:

He said "As a child, my life was a mess
Lots of overeating, vast amounts of stress
I think my brain was damaged, I lacked all control
Any urge came along, and my body it stole."

"So I sank into the mire, but seemed to get out
I got control of all urges, but I still had doubt
Didn't see myself as a normal guy
sickening I know, looking back I want to cry

"But I shaped up, after all the self-destruction
Actually got handsome, but no thought of seduction
Impressed a nice girl, at least she seemed at the time
Went into a vanity dance, but vanity is no crime."

I growled at him: "you looked like a stripper on a pole
I don't feel sorry for you, I feel a black hole."
He shrugged - "I don't want mercy; I want you to hear
I had an urge to be weird, abnormal, that's clear

"But then, someone took a video
It took lots of hoots and insults, before I could know
The video went viral, took countries by storm
They called me the Hebe, they claimed this was the norm."

"Now here's the kicker, I shaped up, I really tried
As years went by, weirdnesses died
But the movie attracted a criminal crew
I spent 27 years trying to disclose what they do."

"They have drugs that affect your brain
They can amplify those urges, that I tried to refrain
They thought it would be funny to use drugs on me
Push a new puritan to an old insanity."

"They can spray drugs through the air,
My rights didn't matter, they really didn't care
They had "devil's breath" and that's just for a start
They perverted science, manipulation is their art."

"So I spent so many years, trying to warn
To tell people that underground was a raging storm
But I couldn't just grab a cop by the lapel
And tell him this truth, it was quite a hard sell."

"We meet here in this home, and I've told you what's real
Got it off my chest, a better way to feel."
"So" said I, "it seems you're crazy too."
He signed, "believe anything, except what's true"

He turned back to his book, and for a moment I thought
What I know about this guy, the behavior was caught
But it was still so crazy, a worldwide exposure
Maybe even this was true, a symmetrical closure

How could we save mankind from this place of old age,  
Where regret fills the room, and guilt writes the page?  
since harsh new science so easy to deny 
And a diagnosis of madness is where truth goes to die.
