There was no there there

   everywhere seemed forgotten

clothes were left in heaps

  stairs broke down

    You smiled a lot

    sang about roses

  You ate the tiniest portion of an edible

and it made you high

   People smiled at you

for no known reason

  You liked dogs and babies

  you're an old man now said Jack Terwilliger

But you paid him no

  never mind

it wasn't worth it
