Today

a knock at the door.

"who could this be?"

two men deceptively well-dressed.

"we're here to make you laugh

and then forget what was funny."

laugh and forget

no more movement

"we are service workers

today is the day for it"

wondering what the day is

and why it is today

the thought trails

morphs into senile chuckles

forgetting to laugh, then laughing

at forgetfullness



standing at the open door

"well, were your senses not tickled by our antics?

were our services not timely and appreciated?"

. . . .. .

"who are you again?"
