Think About It

Have you ever heard me laugh?

Think about it.

When I jest and joke,

When I prod and I poke,

When I put someone down,

Just to lift you all up.

Just to erase that frown.

Just to make you all smile.

Just to make your sides split,

The spit clinging to your vibrating lips.

Like lingering bile after you vomit.

Do you ever think about it?
