It Started as a Joke

It Started as a Joke

A Poem by Scott A. Williams
"

It's all intuitive

"
It started as a joke
but suddenly became
something real,
something serious,
a matter of life and,
if not death,
something worse.

But f**k it, man,
whatever it is,
it's still a joke to me,
and always will be.
Let the consequences melt away.
If I have to laugh,
I'll laugh,
and if I have to go on my own,
well you don't have to know,

There's some that if they don't get it,
you can't explain.
There's some that if they can't explain it,
it's because they do.
