Gogul's head

Gogul has a list of names
inside his head.
He stays with them
day and night,
and every single time
he misses the bus
to catch his flight.

He feels heavy as a rock
for the file’s a huge block
any new person he meets
he gets a shock
to find it matching with the list.
Toms and Joes
With hurts and woes
Harrys and Stephens,
Oh to him, the dossier stiffens!

Tired and heavy,
he was sitting under a tree
when a fruit fell upon his crowded head.
Then all the names dark and read
disappeared and in a minute fled…
he became light and bright
rested under the shade
for a little while
and went home with a bit of a hurt,
leaving them dry and dead.
