The old man thought of his wife,
while dumping another trayful of fries.
She'd be waiting up for him again
Just like she always did.
Half a food court away, Johnny thought he was funny,
this man with a mop and a brown uniform
"What a loser!" he told his friends
And they all laughed with him.
The old man couldn't understand Johnny,
but had heard enough laughter to know
that they didn't know any better.
He didn't either, at his age.
He thought about his own home,
of the fields and mountains he climbed.
He looked at them, saw himself again, and smiled
wondering which one would be in his shoes
