The Jokester

Punster, prankster,

Life of the party

Flitting from pillar to post

In your duty.

Ringmaster, court jester,

Orchestra leader.

No sacred cows in your

Meadows to graze.

 

Quick to react,

Alert to respond,

Never a case

To be haughty or snooty.

No false excuses are

Deemed necessary, like

“Oh, he’s just teasing,” or

“It’s just a phase.”

 

But take care, oh, fearless one.

Not every mark shares

The humor you lavishly spread.

Your feckless buffoonery

To the wrong person

Could engender issues of dread.
