“Breathe Easy” reads the sign across the river,
Where ironically begs a wheezing man.
Desperately pleading with every shiver
To fill his somewhat empty can.
Crowds pass him by without even a glance
Every face plastered with the same blank stare.
He lets out a whistle and even a dance
But their high-class minds were taught not to care.
He thought to himself, ” Now they shall all see
The world surrounding them with open eyes”
Dancing and wheezing he summoned the sea,
Unaware of his closeness to his strange demise.
Aberrantly, the waves crashed all around him
Yet the man continued his toilsome jig
The people continued on still tilting their brims
As if the man were as daunting as a dead pig.
Abruptly the beggar was swept from his feet
By a creature from the ocean below
He was torn to pieces in this great defeat
certainly the sea’s most recent hallow.
Luckily, the man never had to see that they were all still blind
As his very last breath was robbed by a whale oh so kind.
