Probably occurred about mid semester in 2018
Epic perhaps, there was a missed opportunity?
From a challenge contest to pen another poem
But this is stuff that men say in an asylum
At the time my ideas were a jumble of mess
Could this be part of a hero's quest?
The state governor jerry was speaking on campus
An acquaintance shared a seat reserved for our class
Humpty Dumpty is failing down
Failing down, failing down
Humpy Dumpy is failing down
My fair lady
Diddle diddle dumplin
Those days are gone
Diddle diddle dumplin
That ain't John
My fair lady
Hickory clock is out of time
Sirens call, forgot to rhyme
No one listens, no one minds
My fair lady
Didn’t want to attract attention
What my mind wished to mention
And the media’s condescension
You will see me in the dictionary, academically
“Glean, an unclean leper between Samaria and Galilee"
So I put my head down, smiled with a frown, walked away,
On top of that, hail fell from clouds dark and gray
Humpty Dumpty is failing down
Failing down, failing down
Humpy Dumpy is failing down
My fair lady
Diddle diddle dumplin
Those days are gone
Diddle diddle dumplin
That ain't John
My fair lady
Hickory clock is out of time
Sirens call, forgot to rhyme
No one listens, no one minds
My fair lady
But what I failed to say that day
"Hello world. My name is J"
"One moment of your time"
(Got to think of a rhyme)
"Sixty seconds is all I need"
If he agreed
The icebreaker joke
I would have spoke
"What does Pink Floyd and George Bush both share in common?
I cannot breathe! A Derek Zoolander quote about a future problem"
(Pff. Today’s accusation)
(The confusion?) "Crickets" (ovation)
(Writing has its limitation)
"But when you get it...it’s lightning on mural’s foundation"
"My actual question is, if a plague struck the morrow,
Linked to a foul chi fellow"
"With a made-up place, land of Gohan
From some lab institution in Wuhan"
"And you had to wear an M-95 mask
With your power and task"
"Would you close the state for weeks, months, or years?
Thank you for your time (cheers)"
Humpty Dumpty is failing down
Failing down, failing down
Humpy Dumpy is failing down
My fair lady
Diddle diddle dumplin
Those days are gone
Diddle diddle dumplin
That ain't John
My fair lady
Hickory clock is out of time
Sirens call, forgot to rhyme
No one listens, no one minds
My fair lady
Sing a song of golden lies
Of the morrow crowns and paradise cries
As one shoe is on and the other is gone
So diddle dumplin, get out ! And move along
So, is Jesus the Christ?
The crowns and kings’ horses rise
This jester sings golden lies
For one shoe is on and the other is gone
So diddle dumplin move along
Humpty Dumpty is failing down
Failing down, failing down
Humpy Dumpy is failing down
My fair lady
Diddle diddle dumplin
Those days are gone
Diddle diddle dumplin
That ain't John
My fair lady
Hickory clock is out of time
Sirens call, forgot to rhyme
No one listens, no one minds
My fair lady
