Innocuous Laugh

I am laughing loud today 
Feigning all my innocence 
Come and compete with me 
In this race of laughing 
With your innocuous laugh
Why I am laughing  
No one knows the reason
Not even myself  
Yet I am laughing loud 
‘Coz laugh gets me to laugh
Thinking I should stop 
But that very thought 
Titillates me inside 
And I again
Burst into a loud laugh 
Putting my nails into the holes of my nose 
Why I am laughing though no one knows 
Not even myself  
Yet I continue to laugh 
As if I am possessed by an innocent ghost
