Laugh like a loon
it has its drawbacks

in a room full
of hacks
you’ll roll breathless
with mirth
in silence undeserved
be upstaged by
a petty second act
where actors care more
about their feathers
you will weather
the storm
bust a gut with chortle
no one’s immortal
nothing’s ruined by fun
laughter has drawbacks
in a room full of hacks
you can still die laughing
and so, there is that
