Jester
I'm the Jester and
I'm seeing the color Red
My life has become a Joke.
What's next I ask
With no answer to give
Just trying to live.
Why ,Oh why,
Do I have to stay this way
No fun at all unless ...
I'm playing Cards
With my best friend,
Angela, is her name.
I love to play with her
And as we play we joke
With each other so much.
Jusy waiting on our neighbors
To hear us sounding so mad
And call the Police to check on us.
It would be fun just trying to
Explain what we do as we play
Games, almost every night .
But Friday is Game Night!
