Life

Life would be simple 

I caught a man today 

Who in his simplicity 

Had gone astray 

 

Stopped for a chat 

This simple bloke 

Had lost all his teeth 

And no longer smoked 

 

In his simplicity 

He has gone astray 

And for the error 

He must now pay

 

But hope is eternal 

Life can be rough 

When at the end

Was it enough?
