Who is this Stranger?
Who is this stranger sitting
beside me
On the road from one place to
another
A nephew who in the long ago
Was my partner in Dark Tower
and chess
He is a grown man now,
balding a bit
Who wants to save my soul
from damnation
A religion he invented last
year
He’s got a website; I could
look it up
As a boy he was so good at
chess
As a man he can’t sort out
all the pieces
