Laugh

Laugh at yourself,
I do so every day.  
Pity is for the foolish,
Absurdity for the wise.  

Laugh at your dreams
As they all fall away.  
Grasp for them in the dark,
Stretching the emptiness inside.  

Laugh at your life,
Mine brings me to tears,
Mingled in bitter exuberance
As I’ve so laughed all these years.
