Not Serious Poem

What is funny?


Right!   This time i’m writing a poem that’s not too serious

Ohh-kaay … gotta have some gravitas though 

As a matter of fact it has.  But we’re accessing that with a Lighter Tone - quirky

Ham-it-up-a-bit!  

Yeah … don’t go berserk though.  None of ya frightening stuff.  Something that might work on the slam-circuit.  Nudges the listener … not bludgeons …  

Maaate!  Nice Mind-lattice.  I’m ..   

Ohr wait:   gotta make it rhyme   …  

Right, so the judges’ll know it’s poetry …

 

& don’t forget ta repeat a line  - to amplify significance 

& don’t forget ta repeat a line - to amplify significance

 

Before we explore further, First Law: - we can’t be talking about: 

The C-word.         &/Or:   THE V-word  -  we’ve all moved on  

Got it.   Though … it’s been said that poetry is: speaking the unspeakable

Cool. But it breaks our Golden Rule:   not funny  

Weelll … it’s funny you should mention that … coz technically  …  it is:   it’s funny peculiar … at a minimum

How’s that ?

Bat Lady .. Batman .. & .. The Virus Hunter:  cook-up: a Super Bat Virus … in …:   

The Bat Lab 

Using real nicknames they’d already given themselves …

Holy Pandemic Potential! Hope security was tight …

Yeah-nope.    

Whoops … 

Relax - by chance, the Bat Pack had been working on:   the exact vaccine variant to fix it! 

& btw:  China’s brand of Totalitarianism is:    “open & transparent”

 

Huhhuhhuh!      Yeah-but  - you’d have to admit …it did catapult us into a dystopian Science-fiction Movie  -  including:  Draconian Restrictions on: all Freedoms  -  AI Surveillance - literally up ya gazoo  …

Yeah, how do they even do that sewerage testing? 

That too, but i meant the anal swabs they implemented in China   

Shit yeah, i’m wondering- 

That’s too dark  bro :  not funny

Agreed - anal recognition technology is going too far.

 

 


Academy Award

Let’s forget that -  strip it right  back:   

How ‘bout:     THE Academy Award for Slap-Stick Comedy as a model?

Yeah …  where are you going with this? 

Happening at  -  that  - exact moment in money-time -  when:     THE Media  -  pivots  -  from:  talking about THE C-word - incessantly - total cover-up crap, but non-stop  …  right up to:

 

THE Slap

 

Starring?: (baritone announcer voice) Will Smith - with Chris Rock  

A Tragic-Comedy  … that’ll shock you   … into forgetting that …   : 

THE C-word ever happened

Best supporting actors?:   Every other Hollywood  Cock-head 

in Attendance   

 

Yeah - that was hilarious - could barely wipe the tears away - but-  

Yo - let’s do that - THE Hollywood Slap:   as:     a  found poem !    We could go viral!

Yeah … or not.  Meanwhile, let’s get back to-

Re-enact it - right here n now!  

If i say the C-word out loud - 

anyone is invited to  come out of the audience … 

whack me one in the chops.

(hand wave-off gesturing) No, as i said, we’re-

But Instead of …  a Slap …    let’s up the ante … kickbox me in the fucking head.  Any volunteers?

 

Oo-kaay - stay in your seats!    We’re only brainstorming here  …


 

Netflix

 

Let’s get Back to basics:  something funny ...  

something we know works ..

don’t need to reinvent-the-wheel here folks … 

Man - i know !     How about some transphobic jokes … ! …?  

No  -  wouldn’t have thought so mate  -  no.

Why not?  loadsa famous comedians make excellent money off it on Netflix

Netflix is crap

I watched Netflix-Ricky's Special  …

Why would you do that? 

Do you know what the funniest bit was?

No mate

Zero mention of:    (whisper) THE C or V-words

World altering event - ladies & gentlemen - i present the insights of comic genius: Ricky Gervais - broadcasting live from:   the-thick-of-it ! 

Radio silence….

 

Ohrrrr …  good job.   Now you’ve gone n fucked this poem up with: 

ya problematic ranting.  What happened to our something-funny-mantra?  

Oh yeah, i still wanna do that …

Man, better make it quick - this poem is nearly ended … 

Sorry - i got it -  this’ll crack-u-up:   

Why didn’t the chicken cross the road?    

Don’t know mate - why didn’t it?

It couldn’t - coz it wasn’t triple-vaxxed!   Haha … so it woulda got tasered arrested & maced - then had its Covidiot Chicken-Head smashed into the concrete!     Hahaha … 

Uhmm … no mate.  Need i say, it doesn’t rhyme, moreover, it’s not funny.  That literally happened to Freedom Protesters in Victoria 

Ohrr …   Chickens or humans?

Humans mate   

Oh-kay.      So it's:  too sad ?

Yeah - very sad  

i know - ok  ok  …  got it …

To the point mate  

Went to a friend’s barby the other night - she lit up a number/the party - it was amazing gunja - instant-lively kind … discussion flowing like crazy

Then she lit up a second - a fat one - i said:  Ohr - you wanna go another one already?! 

She said  -  exhaling  -  passing the joint:  

Why not?  Is there some kinda law against that?
