BlankIf satire is honesty then what is a joke
Is it a lower form of illogical banter?

Or it is a metaphorical lump in one's throat
a whimper, a mask hiding life's, life lines

A thwarted scream channeled by desperation
a strong will, no room for the inverted cry…

When we all laugh do we really cry?

… moderate interpretation of the object
right a piece of bevelled glass - wishes
simply this article
praises the innovation
of a well-worn trifle

who hollows out you to the weave

…interpretation modique de l'objet
juste une parcelle de glace biseautee - voeux
simplement cet article
vante la nouveaute
d'une bagatelle eculee

qui t'evide jusqu'a la trame
