Almost Clever

Observations about life and stories that border on being funny and/or inspired.

For all those...

Taking a suggestion from a comment on the previous post, I am writing a little poem defending my sense of humor:

For all those that just sit and stare,
when I doth quote Stephen Colbert,
For all those that just look stunned,
when I make a simple pun,
For all those that just don't laugh,
when I mention the Macaca gaffe,
For all those that just rest in silence,
when I discuss "A History of Violence,"
For all those from whom I get no deference,
when I make a Simpsons reference,
For all those that just tire of me,
when I point out a delicious irony,
For all those that say I'm not funny,
when I know I'm just plain money,

For all those who will never get it,
I say someday you will regret it,
For I am not the first you see,
to be appreciated only by history,
Many like me before have died,
one was even crucified,
For one day when I have gone on by,
they will say, "John was one funny guy."
