A Man Ahead.

Deciding not to talk
 he took a walk
saw a lonely stalk
seated in a rock
standing away from its flock
it seemed to have a mental block
 and was in a status locked
as it stared at him from the dock
 he went forward  and got knocked
by its  grace which was in  great stock
appreciating its tenacity without a mock
he went ahead chiming like a clock,
