Gaffes Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Why are you laughing?

'It appears that the ventriloquist and the puppet,
Have different approaches to voice their points of view.'

You are not suppose to notice that.
Even though I must admit,
This performance has been a disaster.
And...
That shouldn't be a reason to laugh,
At such a blunderous gaffe.

'Oh,
I'm not laughing at the numerous gaffes.
I am laughing at those who are watching this show,
Who believe what is being presented is fantastic.'

Well...er..uh...
Hopefully the second act,
The ventriloquist and the puppet will agree...
The seriousness to agree on the economics,
Is what the listeners hope that can be mastered.

And stop laughing.
The audeince will think you are crazed.

'These days?
Does my reaction really matter? '

Kiss my buttocks.
And have some respect for those who are Polish.

'What?
How many puppets are in this entourage?
All of you are hysterical.'

You will regret that when you see the 'polls'.
