Tony's Outside Joke
Getting a glimpse at a joke from the borderline
Needs some explanation, but sometimes
One likes the mystery better than the punchline.
Many have accused me of forced rhymes,
Errors in meter, and the occasional birthday card.
I cannot stand guiltless to such accusations
So i simply prove their point and move onward.
Time has its way of telling on our pun-tifications.
O muse of mischief, please laugh not if i place
Lucky charms in your cream of celery soup.
Or wake you in a blizzard with hood over my face
Via your cellar window as if a burglar at your stoop.
Every silly happenstance rolls down my cheek to make
Me happy for the times we shared. Complete with mistakes.
