Ponder

Upright Citizens riding planes

meetings about women's rights complex and contrite

Jokes both funny and not

Is a joke still a joke if no one laughs?

webster's dictionary:  something said or done to provoke laughter or cause amusement

so i guess the answer is no.  

A Poem:

We've started wars

been killing scores 

but in the school systems children snore 

don't give a damn no more, 

just kissin' girls and bein' whores.  

anesthetized 

while we fantasize about celebrities 

living in their dreams.  

Can we create instead of depricate and depreciate 

our brothers and mothers, our sisters, 

solve problems with words not pistols.  

Plant flowers not lies

Sow seeds of sweet dreams

of hard fought rights 

lost and stolen in the night

by those who don't understand

or don't care to understand

blinded by the pinhole of light through which they see the world

Don't wait for an eclipse to stop and stare.
