Jester

For I doth play the fool, don't think it too cruel, if I let you all in on the joke.

With a jingle and clang, a new dirge is sang, thank the gods that you're not broke.

Slight of hand missed, blow all a wet kiss, there and back from the hereafter.

A cheshire grin, festooned baton spin, wink and nod to the back rafters.

 

Too bad they're empty.

Silliness But Seriously Silly

This one was so much fun ;D - wink-nod preserves the beat, the end line sums up the entirety succinctly - no one is listening and the fool is fooled once and yet the more beseems - ha ha hmmmmm...read it over and over and over and found gems each time, just as I should have ~~~A~~~
