Trip Sitter Poem by Rob Sandman We’ve all got a friend like this of course, Istabraq, Seabiscuit the ould warhorse, Snortin like a whale inhaling at the surface, Smokes til just lookin’ at them makes your lungs hurt its- Amazing grace while you’re off your face messed up, They’re in the corner laughin' - not a hair mussed up, **Not out of place in the place to be, The opposite in fact a life saver to see, Always at your back with a friendly shoulder, A spliff, skins smokes-well timed glass of water** Not immune or a ****** just seasoned, When you’re lost-beyond all reason, Lost the end of your sentence?-they’ve got it, a well tuned part in the heart of the party chaotic, The calm center of the whirlpool, Deadpool- Quick with a line, not too cuttin’ but nobodies fool, trip sitter, designated brain at the sesh, A little OCD maybe, but nonetheless, We’re all thankful with a full tankful Its gas havin' a laugh knowin' you can bank full- Confidence in your mates if you trip, *But no mercy with the quips, quick! zip your lips If you’re not in full control of the tongue, They’ll be followin’ the slips and zip down your lungs You’re a wounded gazelle on the plains and they’ll lunge, Like a cheetah once you’ve taken the plunge* I’m not talkin of only one person of course, We all take turns as the tour de force- goes round **Like a Merry go round sound friends abound While you’re bewildered the wildebeest takes the crown, Don’t know about you, but I’m blessed with a few true- Trip sitters babysitters life fitters diametrically opposed to bullshitters** *Sideplitters with one liners that leave you gaspin’ For air beyond compare got the grasp and flavor Best savour the moments-they’re all too few , Best friends are saviours who help you pull through, So lets all give thanks to the big hitters, Thanks lads and lasses I’m always grateful for me trip sitters!*
