THIS POEM ISN'T FUNNY

This poem isn’t funny. 
It involves no comedy,
even if you read it
while you’re hanging from a tree. 


It has no funny elements.
It will not make you laugh,
even were a monkey
to declaim it in the bath. 


This poem has no giggles
and contains no funny words,
like ‘bippy’, ‘blimp’ or ‘blabbermouth’
or ‘nincompoop’ or ‘nerd’. 


It’s really not amusing
and won’t make you feel happy. 
You’re likelier to get your jollies
from a dirty nappy. 


Yes if you want a chuckle
then you’d best consult a clown. 
This poem isn’t funny;
it will only bring you down.
