Tough Crowd
Pondering about jokes,My favourite thing to do. Just cross my fingers and hope they'll laugh about it too.
In my imagination, They all laugh hysterically. But in reality,They stare at me embarassingly.
I dont get it, i concoted a good joke! But all that got me was some shade and some smoke, and some eerie silence that made me wanna pack up and go, and take all my jokes to some, jollier folks and watch them laugh hysterically at my jokes.So i dont have to look at blank faces and say tough crowd as they side eye me like a white guy at powwow.
