Where'd I put it

Poem

Bouncing around right foot

Planted shakily in the ground

For the fabled left foot

On its trail I’m a hound

​

I see it there

Stretched out before me

Daring me to catch it

Like some wanton adoptee

​

Tis not my fault folks

In my seventh childhood I am

Wise enough to know there’s an evil twin

Of my right side, ma’am

​

Yeah so I forgot to write down

Where I last put my left foot

Because sometimes things happen

Gets your socks covered in soot

​

Do not doubt my good will and intent

Or risk my non-evil look by bringing insult to my family and clan

Keep laughing as I search for the fabled left

I am a 70s something set in his ways modern renaissance man
