1:30 P.M. after hiking six miles of uncivilized beach

9:00 a.m. Nursing home Journies.

All the dinosaurs came and got Barney

And so we bond.

Senseless gift


There was no rhyme nor reason to whatever he did,
he was deaf, dumb and blind, and bedridden as well,
but he lay near a window, and when the mood struck him,
he would often draw symbols in the wintertime frost.

Elaborate they were, he was born with the soul,
of an artist trapped in a flesh cage of no mercy,
and one day after etching a fine work of beauty,
a passing photographer saw the scratches and gasped.

With various exposures he shot many fine pictures,
that developed as a poster that quickly sold millions,
it made all women weep, it made all warriors humble,
and children who saw it, swore they'd all live in peace.

Thus a man with no senses, brought sense to the masses
though he never was told of the greatness he'd wrought,
fame and fortune eluded this heap of flesh bundled,
near a window to a world he would ultimately save.
