The Gracious Jester

I've stared into this mirror so long,

my face fails to exist.

Picasso pales next to this abstract design.

I'm sure whatever deity created me

intended the form the comic relief for all occasions.

But it didn't expect said comedienne

to refuse the punchline as often as she did.

Perhaps now I can remember how to fly,

and forget how to fall.
