[hometext] => Inspired by studying the lives of many comedians and comediennes
[bodytext] => Laugh, giggle, laugh Cracking up, splitting one’s side with joy So is the life and purpose of the comic. A clown, stooge, jester Day in, day out bringing fun time to all. What’s behind this face of mirth? Is all this façade, a mask? Who is he? Remove the jokes, laughter, partying Where does fantasy end and reality begin? Take the man, what does he feel, think? Inside is a lonely soul Forgets his problems and sorrows Seeking acceptance, fulfillment Performing is a shadow of self Comedy breathes life into his empty shell. Audience gives purpose. Laugh, laugh, man of gaiety, of merriment Life’s complete on the stage of life.
