and the Good Samaritan

sees the car on the side of the road

the woman waving him down

he quickly, without thought, slowed

and the Good Samaritan

got out of his car, a smile on his face

"how can I be of service to you"

she gave him a warm embrace

and the Good Samaritan

felt all warm inside, as he often did

when he helped those in need

be it man, woman or kid

and the Good Samaritan

drifted of, in a never ending rest

stripped, robbed and left for dead

a bullet in his chest
