Joe is a man for every man
Admired by all
Known by none
Joe always helps a friend
Yet really has few
That help him
Joe lives not in his world
The world of others
Being more accessible
Joe hopes to find himself
In another, greater
More perfect man
Joe feels the hopes
The dreams, the desires
Of others
Joe feels the pains,
Trials, suffering
Of others
Joe feels not
His pains, his suffering
His dreams, his desires
Joe has a heart
Ignored, diminished
By all else
