Shoulda seen this kid on a bike

Oh how he loved the attention

If you coulda seen him zig-zaggin up the hill

So many cars just had to stop

Couldn’t stay on the path

But he was a persistent fucker

Full of a senseless mirth deriving from

no intellectual awareness of his

hapless condition

-

How the kids of the neighbour used to holler

‘Willy wonky

Feet of a donkey

Breath of a Grufflalo without wings’

-

His mother was just glad he was living

and eating and not falling too far

behind at school.

-

Currently drives a fork lift truck

Earns more than I do

Still can’t walk straight

Talk very well
