Who is this man?
Dark haired man
A man with glasses
A man with a slouch
Why is this man in my bathroom?
Have I done something to this man?
I try to talk to this man,
But the man’s face changes
Hello my fellow man!
The man grows angry
I’ve never met you before, kind man
Why the scowl, I ask the man
Changing, the man
The man, no longer a man
But a monster
Not a man
