There once lived a boy in my street
Rumors were he had ten feet
Now, if he had five that would be fine
But ten meant he could be no friend of mine
At school we would talk about him every single day
Daring each other to go to his house and ask him to play
But each one of us was to afraid
No matter how much we’d be paid
One day the boy decided to come outside
One foot after the other as though trying to hide
He stepped off his porch and stood behind a tree
People gathered in the street trying to see
There was a silence over the crowd
Then everyone let out a gasp quite aloud
Children hide their faces in their palms
The boy was hideous he had two legs and two arms.

Me likes.
It sort of reminds me of an original Twilight Zone where throughout the entire show, everyone's face is in the shadows. They are in the hospital and the patient is apparently having plastic surgery in order to make her look "acceptable" and normal. Anyway, I won't give it away unless of course you have already seen it then you know which one I am referring to.
Take care.
Tim
