Knives - painting by Andy Warhol
Cheap Thrills
And so you are a razor wit
cutting slashing
through meat and mire
relentlessly
searching for laughs.
I chuckle along
through gritted teeth
because I'm never sure
of your aim
or purpose
and I don't want to bleed
for your enjoyment.

ReplyDeleteGreat thoughts, Jo. Humor is a powerful and healing thing, until we use others as our cutting board.

Whoa! Ginzu! Never needs sharpened. Um, are we dating ourselves?
ReplyDeletetis it more noble to suffer the slings and arrows?...
