One Shoe Jack

Glistening on a tear a lightening bolt glimmered far and near

Along came a man storming through the clouds and the wind

Whispering on the wind came a sound far wide near

Silhouettes beckoned say come near "One Shoe Jack"

Teeth flashed white hard and hungry speaking for themselves saying "yes"

Symbolic as the world revolves he looked deep within souls of dark, good, evil with a proposition of question

Hanging in the air was a deal of great with a taste of mean

Who you be asked One Shoe Jack eyes crinkled with silent mirth

Amused you be at our deal we thought of great care and sweetness coming green and fair

What be this job of green and fair asked the none loquacious loner One Shoe Jack with his hand aspread on his version of truth

A mystery is afloat in this City of Beslam and its quest for excitement is sure to drive a thirst amad to figure One Shoe howled loud and deep with riverting chuckles running through his mind of cad as his eyes slitted with acceptance, lips thinned with glee for indeed the parlor is spider and his deeds are known

His reputation is notorious, infamy is his game and unrivaled throughout the land as the adventure runs, turns clear and wide
