LAST LAUGH

Joe Marcello

Add the species comedian to the endangered species list

For their offending words must be silenced

And even the phrase punchline

Is now considered an act of violence

    So true Joe, bad language in comedy has become the norm here in the UK as well. Some comedians are still funny but not like the ones in the past that I remember.

      I messed up. The last line is supposed to be Is now considered not I now considered. The point was supposed to be how much I am against any censure.

      ...Very short, very to the point, and I love it.

      I can't agree to be rid of comedians or their comedy. But i can see a concise and punchy poem from you today.

        Very sorry. The last line was supposed to Is now considered not I now considered. I am against the censorship of the comedians. That one word changed the whole meaning. I am with you.
