they called him Hafway Always

                                 HA  for short  Obviously   Of course  OOC

no matter what the gang was up to

                                      he couldnt keep up

not that he wasnt committeddidnt want to

was just slow on the uptake

                               anthen   less enthusiastic

because he was late to the game

yet when the gang let him call the terms

                                          they werent inconsiderate  he was one of them

he found the ground under his feet turn to sand  slipped  lost ground 

they arrived

     he was hafway

they waited for him

                      although

less and less he was invited around

upset  begrudgingly he learned to accept that

                                                 he recognised he wasnt fire on all cylinders 

HOWEVER

              when the gang needed something worked out  something sedentary

HA was the man

maybe not a man of action

                            rather  a plodder a plotter    patience

hence how he discoveredthey discovered how he really fit in

                                                                  a cog to their gear

Say gang . . think we could change my nickname?

a chorus  Nope.
