He sat there looking on, The one million mile stare, As still as if he was drawn Or maybe just in prayer. Across the entire world His mind would race. His thoughts would unfurl As his mind would quickly pace. How do you catch a prawn? Or how would be get home? The last chopper from Saigon, The great civilisation, Rome. All the world was his oyster. But why not anymore? For while his mind did roister, Time had crept out the door. At this time everyday He was able to be free. On the outside he was grey While inside he could flee.

He sat there looking on, The one million mile stare, As still as if he was drawn Or maybe just in prayer. Across the entire world His mind would race. His thoughts would unfurl As his mind would quickly pace. How do you catch a prawn? Or how would be get home? The last chopper from Saigon, The great civilisation, Rome. All the world was his oyster. But why not anymore? For while his mind did roister, Time had crept out the door. At this time everyday He was able to be free. On the outside he was grey While inside he could flee.
