Kyle's Story

A stranger came to Denver
Where he mistook his way.
He asked the fuzz for guidance
"Get lost" was all they'd say.

He was there already,
He informed a tramp,
Who walked the stranger to journey's end
With kindness, from his camp.

More kindness than the shopkeep or the cop this tramp did show
So pass the tramp a dollar
As you're passing to and fro
To pay this kindness forward and
To show to all that you know.

-- Kyle's true story took place in January, 2007. He reported that Denver Police were far less courteous than those in Toledo or Detroit.
