Bob The Mime Who Was Ever Silent

I knew a mime who was ever silent
One of the many who were licensed
        Hit his toe doing his act
        Felt so much pain that he quacked
The city took away his mime license

Yes! knew this mime who was ever silent
He boarded a plane that had no toilet
        Sat on seat, squirmed very pressed
        Passed out gas was quite distressed!
Airline took away his season ticket

Then Bob wanted to be an astronaut
Wanted so bad that NASA he sought
        He was a part time mime
        Mimed the astronaut climb
To the panel his effort was for naught

Hello Marugu your poem embodies a tragicomic tale of a mime's misfortunes. I love that through your humor and wit, it illuminates the irony of a silent performer facing setbacks that hinge on communication. Marugu you show how the absurdities and the unexpected ways in which our dreams can be dashed. - Blessings, Daniel
