The Miserable Man

The Miserable Man His head hanging down, His face wearing a permanent frown. Some regard him as a pathetic clown. Life must have fed him a bitter pill, For he only speaks of ill. It seems as if he has been dealt a rotten hand, His face has been kicked full of sand. Empty is his soul, His heart has hardened like a chunk of coal. Stephen Forcier copyright -8/7/07

This is so sad Stephen, I wonder how many people live totally dejected by life. Probably many more than we'd like to think. Laurie
