no comedy

I'm not a comedian, folks. 
Nor do I aspire to be standing 
in front of people trying to talk
about something so they can all 
laugh at me! I tell true truths, 
well-grasped, firmly and easily

and often enough right-sized 
and which-end up. If they end up 
funny, I wasn't. It's just how I see 
fit to deliver them cocked at a blithe,
oblique angle - precisely and accurately
as they exist in the world! Don't blame 

me 

if the world's peculiar. It is just.
Seems perfectly normal from where
I stand, but maybe I missed something
I wasn't privy to in your upbringing? Spill,
if so! I'm keen to know, but otherwise: go

find a corner and stand on your head,
not mine  
next time, sunshine.
