Tragedy Hero Appears Out of Nowhere

Both unfortunately and painfully

A tragedy has broken my family

And everything changed from that moment on

What has been done

Now can never be undone

Chance has occurred in every single conceivable way shape or form

Like seemingly how now 

A hero has ever so suddenly

Appeared out of nowhere

Who has been and was here all along

A man for all seasons needed in a crisis

Riding in in his trusty white stallion

Providing all kinds of useless help and advice

Who added themselves to the family

Whatsapp group chat and Facebook account 

And every second message that appears

Is under his name is Capital Bold Letters 

A true hero for hire for no other reason

Than to take credit for saving the day

In their own imitable way

To show just how much he alone cares 

Willing to criticize anyone who he deems

Not worthy in his own eyes and opinion

And unfortunately you just have to wait

And put up with their bull

Until the crisis for him has no more

Value from which they can gain

And believe you me

You probably won't ever have to put up

With them let alone see them again
