Divine Comic

 Last Laugh

johnClare stokes

The old comedian 

His worn thin lines

Long ago once

Brought the house down

Funny lines in their time

Now out of sync with

The latest F Chikin' lines

He tried to amend the

Routine but it was too

Late he would never

Again bring the house 

Down

All these props to deal with

What now?

Move on

Nights alone he could 

Sit and run

Over and over the

Routine

Wondering

Why it was no longer

Funny.
