To all those wise, beautiful fools who have brought the medicine of joy and laughter to life, I salute you:
Slapstick’s trinity,
a monotheistic gag–
Salvation’s last laugh.
Genius, in trespassing,
has its necessary fools–
Supreme gag order.
Bemused, and silent,
yes, my funny valentine,
dreams wilt without love.
Life is sad, gags help
to alleviate tension–
Enlightenment, fast.
