I met a friend of spirit,
He drank and womanized.
And I sat before his sanity,
I was holding back from crying.
He saw my complications
And he mirrored me back simplified,
And we laughed how our perfection
Would always be denied.
"Heart and humor and humility,"
He said, "will lighten up your heavy load."
I left him, then, for the refuge of the roads
