Displaced Dude

Displaced Dude

Sour old man 

Wrapped in the old ways

Choking on the turmoil

of 21st Century today

Too much change

Assumptions gone strange

Sour old man

like a ship hopelessly bobbing

in a raging sea

Yearns
for the safe port
of yesterday

Where he can drop
drop anchor

and get back

to the stability

of secure simplicity
