A man distraught
June 8, 2013
A man distraught
Forgets his pants
A man distraught
Ignores his aunts
A man distraught
Leaves on a stove
A man distraught
Drops a lighted clove
A man distraught
Catches the house aflame
A man distraught
Falls through a window pane
A man distraught
Texts and drives
A man distraught
Runs over a child or five
A man distraught
Has ruined his life
And for all that... I still wonder why he was distraught
