Twisted

Twisted man, frayed hair,
Past reflects in his matted tresses.
Down deep and dark with his eyes
His heart pours out in pipe tobacco
feeble, simple-minded, not clear to the word
Down deep and dark within his soul
A smile runs amuck on his face and
Tells stories seldom told.
Twisted, old, gray man down within my soul.
