Affairs are very important to individuals, families or nations, for without it there’s no meaning to their existence.

There’s a man who loved much
To stay in his garage,
From morning till evening,
That’s the place where he can be found,
He’s nowhere in the living room,
Nor in the kitchen,
Never in the study-table,
Or even on the ground.

Someone thought he was crazy,
Others said he’s a lunatic,
A loner, explained a neighbor,
Whatever had been said to him,
He just laughed it all way the way,
And said, “It is okay with me.
I have done nothing bad about this,
It’s for my privacy, that it is.”

In the garage he dwells,
For he loved so much his machines,
Cars, motorbike, and other highway equipments,
For fun and for sports, he uses them all,
That’s why he eat, sleep and work there within,
The garage is his paradise now,
He kisses, polishes, washes, and bathes them all,
And called this event his garage affair.
