Beware the orbs in Fisher Park
They’re not what you think.
Seductive translucent color
Generally a red glowing hue,
Like Christmas tree ornaments
Harmless-looking and compelling.
A curious woman named Cecilia
Charmed by the tantalizing orbs
Touched one and went crazy
Blathering at the emergency room.
To this day she’s shut away
In a bleak institution,
Too crazed out of her mind
To ever come out.
As told to Bob Boyd by Doctor Joseph Menninger.
