Comedy!

Like fish we swim in water 

Unlike fish we know its there 

And sometimes we remember 

That we used to breath in air 

 

R U Knowstalgik for the stasi? 

Longing for the Reich? 

When they thought a thousand years 

Would be drawn out in a trice

 

Comedy is now the window 

Onto the feeling of a loss 

And a humour me placebo 

Has made Urizen cross 

 

Remember when things were different 

And difference was a thing

Not just the vestige of a melody 

That our hearts once longed to sing 

 

So a joke or two will fill the gap 

That moves between the motes 

Of dust that dance above the thinking cap 

Boom boom I’ll get my coat(s). 

 

Comedy!!!
