I am a little weird
I am a little weird, I will admit,
odd as well, but bizarre? Not a bit.
It’s my appearance, you will agree:
my head is on reversed, strangely.
Consequently I see things from the back,
a privileged view most people lack.
But I don’t mind, so, please, no pity
for what others call my “deformity.”
It’s really a blessing in disguise,
for it’s made me singularly wise.
How, you wonder, can that be?
Let me explain it, and you’ll see.
You may see what’s in front of you
but rarely what lies behind – true?
Surely this an unfortunate defect,
whereas my whole life is in retrospect.
Better still, and quite literally,
my problems are now all behind me –
whereas, according to my view,
yours are sadly still ahead of you!
