                A poem written by me about someone that is 'everything far removed' from what Gord Downie was and will remain in accordance with all he left behind for the appreciative to appreciate.

                A poem defining the small man of utter disgrace as he moves his useless flesh in every direction far removed from anything even closely resembling decency.


                The Dummy Failure.

                He can't get out, stuck in this cycle

                Over and over, again and again

                Making the same mistakes

                Too selfish - stupid to realize

                It's his bad and ugly choices

                His patheticness and cries of pain.

                The observer exclaims: Well done, 'You':

                Your consistently successful

                Ruining .....Everything

                  I come from downtown
                  Born ready for you

                  Armed with will and determination
                  And grace, too

                  The secret rules of engagement
                  Are hard to endorse
                  When the appearance of conflict
                  Meets the appearance of force

                    A Hip Fans Comment and this song:


                    " This song and it's message reminds me of why I became a criminal defence lawyer. It's a dirty job and, despite popular views, not one that pays well. The most delicate of our democratic values is the presumption of innocence and it must be vigorously defended no matter how serious or heinous the crime or how deplorable the individual."

                        It seems like Woody uploaded his entire catalog.
