the comedian

we all love jokes. funny stories.
and at some definitive points in our life,
jokes are necessary for us to stay sane.

the saddest part is no longer tragic.
when one found the courage
to laugh it off.

it is all the same,
it is all the same,
we said repetitively.

as the curtain draws near
as the fate bares its fangs
back to the wall
we'd say, the joke is on me.
this is the punchline.
so please by all means, laugh.

it is the only sensible reaction
that we can afford.

damn all those happy endings.
should have been funny instead.
