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 β and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

I think this is my favourite entry so far
Perfect poem and topic for this challenge, Paul! Well done! ππ½ππ½ππ½
It's a good thing that I don't like reality TV. But I loveeee your poem!
Reality TV can be such a time-hole! Great poem, Paul!
So true. There's nothing "real" about reality TV, it's all scripted entertainment.
Pretty close to my feelings about much of reality tv.
I had to read that twice to acknowledge, that yep, that's what he said...hahahaha!! Hilarious and so true. Great one!!
I will avoid the pitfalls of analyzing the first half of this poem LOL! I snort-laughed when I read it! What a nut! You are spot on with the second half! Nicely done, Paul!
Oh, man, I laughed! Love where you went with this one, Paul!
Totally agree! Complete waste of energy and time!! Great job! π
