Question: Do you sometimes look around and wonder!?
*****
THERE I WAS, MINDING
MY OWN BUSINESS


“You there!
You,
with the smile on your face!

You be funny,
in time and space,
with comedy
right in the place!

Right!
Frikken!
Now!

Yes!
I’m talking to you, dipshiit!”

Well, I was surely taken aback
by such an introduction!. I had no
idea what the man was talking about!.

“Don’t just stand there,
the cameras are rolling!”

I looked around to see if I had somehow
missed the sign reading STAGE DOOR!.

Honestly, I was simply trying
to cash in my chips!.

The man then grabbed me by the shirt
and flung me onto the main stage!.

I was not ready with stand-up, so I tried
for some slapstick…and the crowd went WILD!
