Joker

Smile

By Iosefa ManuPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

People are starting to notice

Or is it only me

I live in a box

Others don’t see—

Getting crazier

Out there

People are losing their shit!

Or, maybe it’s just the Government

Responsible for all this—

Maybe it’s the filthy rich

They’ll get what they deserve

Then, they’ll learn

That’ll be their sentence

I hope my death

Makes more cents

Than life

This worthless

Eccentric

With disorders

Pathetic

You don’t listen

Do you?

But soon

—You will

Wait a minute—

Don’t go!

Stay a while

Don’t forget to

—Smile

Put on a happy face

By the way,

I’m Arthur

But—call me

—Joker
