His given name was Jeff
but everyone called him Dude
It has been said that he was lazy and profane
and that may be true
But the Dude had a keen sense of fairness
and of friendship
and of how a rug could tie a room together
The Dude's belly and his smokes
were both pot
and he liked his White Russians
Too laid back for employment
he courted enjoyment
"bowling
driving around
the occasional acid flashback"
But when the need arose for action
the Dude responded
grudgingly and
ineptly
It may be said that he was a loser
and that may be true
But the Dude abides.
