TO GIVE THIS MUCH
Love is the fallen jester
Hat in hand,
Trudging out through the back door
Pondering the silly act
That failed to rouse them from their seats
And merely held them
Eyes glazed over
By mediocrity
Love is the comic who put his heart and soul
Into this moment
Only to be battered by a
Half-hearted laugh
And bumped off the stage with needles in his chest
Twisting his painted face into origami
A frown within a smile
Love is the boy with the rubber face
Able to sculpt his features into any expression
His voice into any accent
His body into any pose
If only to coax a smile from classmates
Who lounge, relaxed and unthinking
While there in front of them he tries so hard
(And falls so short)
Of being funny
