The traveler wore an eyepatch
But I could never tell
If he (or she?) could see behind it;
They got on quite well

They hobbled gently down the street
Choosing each step with care
They always seemed about to fall;
That’s neither here nor there.

Although they seemed quite fragile
And seemed consumed with grief,
I didn’t trust them, nor keep up
Suspension of belief.
