LUFTMENSCH

 

Though my Uncle Harry wore nice suits,

Dark-colored and a half-size too big,

He never looked entirely present.

A private whirlwind dogged his steps;

Even on windless days his necktie

Would wind up over his right shoulder.

(Always his right; you'd think the left sometimes

But no. Try talking sense to a whirlwind!)
