Self Contained

Hank took a ride on the Taboo Xpress

A trip taken many times by you and me

How and when he got off is a mystery
Cause these things not discussed in polite society

Bumped into a blind man peddling batteries
After he was granted his release

Did riding the Xpress cost you your sight!”
Hank cried, “Should I call the Morality Police?”

The blind man raised his calloused hand
And with a toothless grin proclaimed,

“Loving yourself should never be a crime
So let go of self induced guilt and shame”

The Hankster took those words to heart
Now he rides freely with a clear head

Never let hypocrites jerk you around
Or make you feel bad about who you are
