The Rummy

Dana W. Miller 1963 (USA)

Ballad
I saw the Rummy standing there.  As stoned as he could be.               Not knowing where he went.         Not knowing what to be.                The be of a man is sometimes lost.                                                     And with it goes the mind.               I just walked on by.                          

About this poem
