Red X
Driving home this morning, there it was
Right there in the middle of the road
No, no mistake there at all, no way
There was a huge Red X painted there
Now why I ask, but really don't expect reply
Why paint a Red X in the middle of the road
What could this mean, this Red X painted here
Around and around it I walked, yet, still
No, no way did this Red X make any sense
Was this the joke of some sick demented Jester
Or was there a bunch of grumpy old men
Might have been payback from a group of virgins
Though to find them these days is oh so rare
Yet still this Red X stared at me, it was there
It's almost, must be my imagination, a cheesy grin
And what's this, no it cannot be, surely not
Yes there it was, wearing a pair of double D's
That's it, I give up, another sleepless night
While I try to work out this puzzle
Why is there a Red X in the middle of the road

Funny what you find on the road these days

My trust in human nature not being so good in the first place is nil at this moment.
I leave you with a
SPOT
I rubbed
scrubbed
with soaps
then oils
to no avail.
I smiled
for awhile
for I had
forgotten
the fact
about
Leopards
