DUTCH LEAVES

In a town of sleepy-eyes juxtaposed with tweakin' guys
You reall start to wonder which is which.
The only rays come from cathode,
and when you drink, you have one for the road
And then another for the ditch.
And from this drunken wasteland came
a gangly figure with no name
(although it had been said to be Dutch Corning).
And Corning was a hunting man, but his only ammo
was a can of worms collected in the morning.
But one fine day upon his boat, he realized,
"to say afloat upon a sea of apathy is boring!
I should think on grander scales -
prove to all that setting sails
is not reserved to those who are exploring!
This town is but a burning clutch!
The stench has just become too much to bear!
I've got to leave this place today!
I'll let them know my name is Dutch -
and when my fancy sneakers touch the ground,
then all around will say, 'hooray!'"
He packed some things into a sack,
a fancy backpack with a rack
and stacked up all his crap into a case.
In need of rest, his mind distressed,
the dawn was burning on his chest
as he set off to leave that horrid place.
And as he stood upon the border,
he thought it might be too tall an order,
just to leave his home like that.
But clarity soon overthrew the doubts he had,
and then he knew this was the perfect time to get his hat.
