The Joker - who laughs last?

 

 

The Joker - he who laughts at you / me? The World?
Most Jokers that I have seen all have a creepy look about them, and I hope my Joker is in the same tradition...

The Night - a poem about pain

The Night By Paul Howlett

 

Late at night

Feeling the darkness

Feeling the pain

 Bed sheets soaked in sweat

What is wrong

what is right

Was it food

I thought in fright

I worked hard today

Maybe a ripped tendon

Muscle of course

No said the guts

And proceed to roar

The agony total

No help from a pill

Emergency phone call

Ambulance please

What a relief

To be given morphine.
