One at a time He climbs the steps breath uneven, labored Though crossing crowded streets he's agile as a jaybird

A funny write! Could be a two-faced person. Could that jaybird also be a jailbird…

he better be agile, at least in downtown Dallas. One can get run over crossing the streets too slowly :-)

Giving a different impression around others but in reality struggling inside when no one is around. We all sometimes pretend all is good when in fact it is not. Thanks for sharing my friend. very clever and insightful Gershon...
