He strikes a rather sombre pose
While plodding though his life.
Doing all the usual things,
Like jobs and kids and wife.
It’s been head down, bum up.
(Now don’t get that confused).
Frivolous and transient fun,
Do not leave him amused.
He’s on that ho-hum humble trip
Of living in the past.
A long and windy journey
On the road to nowhere fast.

Excellent ditty! Jolly good show.
