He Tried to Reverse His Life
There was a man who drove
his car in reverse all his life.
He went backwards to work
backwards to town
backwards to everywhere.
The police chased him
his neighbours hated him
roundabouts stopped flowing
red lights were never seen
people ran across the road
until finally he ended up in court.
On sentencing he was asked
‘Why drive backwards?’
He replied
‘To turn back time until my
wife was alive’

Dear Gareth of Wales
ReplyDelete*He Tried to Reverse His Life" Is a well thought out story
Perhaps not true, but I wished it was to give back a wife
for life. Thanks for sharing.

Yes! I understand his self-destructive tendencies after he's lost his moorings.
