What is a Shadow? A darkness on the day
A sad nonspeaking fellow, who goes the wrong way
He can not move on his own, he waves when others do
He lives his life all alone, he disappears at noon
He can only lay on the ground, or maybe against the wall
Can't even exist when you're not around, or on a cloudy day in fall
But what do all shadows know? What can they really say?
They only come with lights that glow, night can only be for day.

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
