A Joke

I am the punch line

to a joke you never heard,

the reverberating laugh

in the shadows.



I will never be

taken seriously.



I am ridiculed

at every step I take,

tripping on their snickers

until I’m on my knees.



Little do they know,

the joke will be on them.



Inside, I’m in stitches

at how pathetic they are

poking fun at me when

they are walking gags.

Very good.

I've never wrote in this kind of style. But I like it :)
