Me? Oh, I'm John Gregory Frederick Derrickson

born August 16, 1946 at 5:10 AM in Ridley Park, PA

A Hermit
I am the hermit, the magician, the fool.
Knight of wands I'm not -- just look the part.
Going now to mountain's cave.
Hope you'll visit me there. -- Be cool.
- John G. Derrickson

RESUME

The faithful dog 'oft roams at night.

The strongest iron will rust.

The cooing dove is not so bright.

The good earth is also dust.

Thorns mar the sweetly scented rose.

And, the stinger has the bee.

With these thoughts, I'd like to close:

Don't expect too much of me.
