Boy at The Pane

Sherman is a kid going on 90,
thrilled with sights and sounds since he was a little.
Ever since Sherman was knee high to a grass hopper,
someone up there has been painting him pretty pictures.
Ever since Sherman was knee high to grown ups,
the dead pan, bad-breath folks have been slamming him hard.

Who is this shithead to claim such privilege,
that every artist he revels in,
does their arty thing
primarily for little Boy Blue's attention

If Sherman is a fool, let it be so.
Better to be lied to than face unbearable truths.
