Love
Leads to heartache and pain
Love hurts
Love kills,
So tell me why
We fall in love still?
***
Fools are born
Every day of the year,
We are told what to expect
But we don’t want to hear.
***
We believe we are different
Won’t happen to me,
Need to learn our own lesson
So we will wait and see.
***
At the start
Love is great,
We like to think
We have found our mate.
***
From then we soon learn
About heartache and pain,
We think about leaving
But what’s there to gain.
***
We fall in love
And everything’s fine,
But believe me the pain will come
It’s just a matter of time.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
