SNAPDRAGON’S JOKE
This morning I was sitting on a bench next to a homeless
man, I asked him how he ended up this way.
He said, "Up until Last week, I still had it all!
All my meals were prepared for me,
my room was cleaned, my clothes were washed,
pressed, I had a roof over my head, I had TV, internet,
I went to the gym, the pool, the library,
I could still go to school."
I asked him, "What happened? Drugs? Alcohol? Divorce?"
"No, nothing like that," he said.
"I just got out of prison."
