Jack Ellison Poet Rhyme

Old Man Jackers

In the dictionary beside the word 'dementia'
Is a picture of your man Jackers
The description reads 'he's off his noodle'
This man is totally crackers

Not a sane thought in his whole damn noodle
Couldn't handle it if there was
Likely freak out and run screaming thru the mall
Running hell bent from the fuzz

Now Jackers shouldn't be judged too harshly
He's really a gentle old soul
Just that the years have caught up with old Jackers
He's no longer the one in control

So don't go feeling all depressed for this dude
He's a real happy camper inside
All he knows is he's loved by you friendlies  
And he's just along for the ride

Jack Ellison August 27, 2022 at 3:56 AM So happy to hear words of encouragement Michael! "Old Man Jackers" was downloaded as a bit of self humour and is not to be taken too serious! LOL Thanks for dropping by Michael!!!

L Milton Hankins August 26, 2022 at 9:11 AM To be truthful, this doesn't sound, for the most part, like the Jack we know. You are a long way from "crackers," my friend. I'm just so happy to know you are "a real happy camper inside." That's what's really important. Jack Ellison August 26, 2022 at 9:22 AM Thought I'd throw in a cracker! Trust me I'm still the only Jacker just messing around!!! Worry not!
