Split Personalities

Split Personalities Tom and Tim walked down the street, Tom knew that he was Tim And so it is no surprise, Tim knew that Tom was him. Then Arthur came down the street And said, “Hello Tom and Tim.” Tom said, “Hello Arthur,” Arthur said, “Hello Tim.” Tom said, “That was Arthur, Tim,” Tim said, “I know that was him, But does he know that I am you And we both spoke to him?" Arthur replied to both of them, He knew that Tom was Tim. Tim spoke to Tom and Arthur And they both spoke to Tim. Then Tim and Arthur spoke to Tom But Tom was also Tim So Tim listened to Arthur When Arthur spoke to him.

I could just picture this in a movie role made with Bill Murray acting in the leading roles! I loved your off the cuff sense of humor in this piece, rather it was intended or not. Congratulations on your win Barry. I would have had this much higher up. ; ) #7

Thank You for your appreciation, Connie. The humour was intended to come out of the description of a rather surreal situation. Barry
