And now there was only me… <br />Everyone I’ve known and all my friends have left in a hurry <br />Rushing towards the light in the center of their mind <br />Hurrying in as if the Grand Door would close before they entered <br />Well I say let that damn door slam shut <br />And lock it from the inside <br />I’m staying here in Purgatory <br />With the animals in the zoo___<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lions-tigers-and-let-s-not-forget-the-apes/
