Herbert Nehrlich - Two Boys

Two boys, good friends,
named Fat and Dumb
defied the trends
that had become
a way of life
for all their peers.
It caused much strife
and silent fears.

They bucked convention,
as one was Fat,
went to detention,
boy Dumb did that.

And finally,
they'd had enough,
so to be free
they made a tough
but oh, so logical decision.

They packed two bags
for their next mission,
dressed in old rags
and left their land
for unknown regions.

You'll understand
that all allegiance
between obese
and slow of mind
is like a fleece
for one's behind.

Herbert Nehrlich
