Jack Benny’s
Comedic persona was to pinch pennies.
Every week he would lead his merry band
And Rochester would always get the upper hand....

Creation of Love

He took an old sock and did stuff it
With a comedic voice he did bluff it
And need I here mention
The guy was Jim Henson
And the sock was his very first Muppet...

  Hilarious, comedic head
  On such a laughable bod...

Acted totally spacy
  Her humor dazzling
  Via daffiness frazzling...

How is humor described in the dictionary
Am I considered a buffoon with a brain quite aerie
Do I have comedic talents
Or am I unhinged, unbalanced
Sure hope it doesn't turn out I'm a big fat fairy...

Surely it does... but don't call me Shirley
“Airplane” a rapid-fire spoof, you remember surely
Leslie Nielsen was the pilot
A real sexual joke pileup 
A riot for the time, a hit with this comedic jury...

Comedic moments when some people talk harshly about things they couldn't understand 
It's like trying to criticize the ground where they stand 
Without understanding how it came to be 
Even dirt on their faces, they could not see

Crazing clown face rises 
above the four way road 
chucking chunky Iron coins 
down its comedic throat 
roller-coaster amusement 
carrousel at night
silently spinning 
moving against the slight 
wind, pushing everything 
along its shy way...

it was once said 
well actually 
sung "What
ever it is I'm
against it".

though a
comedic
routine it
seems it
is the

catch phrase
of the modern
age because
after all what
ever it is

is fake so
surely what
ever it is i'm 
against
it...

Comedic contortionist claims clubfeet;
consider carefully, circus clowns cheat.
Chico chipped Carson City's carved concrete
clumsily chiseling cheap cardboard containers.
Charlatans can calm capitol complainers
confounding Congressional campaigners.

am I liked?
do people smile and lie or are they truthful
being a comedic person helped me bury my pain
who is real and who is just a figment?
when it gets tough, who will run and who will stay?
honesty I find can heal most problems
I haven't had a real friend in many years....

Richard Michael Mayall
On June 9, 2014 took his last pratfall,
Noted for his energetic “post-punk” style
The English comedic actor elicited many a smile.

Oh Donald dear, here we are again
  Are you indeed the representative of republicans?
Your speeches flow like some comedic schtick
  Will the wall be built with adobe brick?
Behind you a  following of thousands hearing all you’re not saying
  Leaving the rest of us on our knees and fearfully praying....

   Serious poets write fancy sonnets  
     Fear not, entertainers and comedians

   If the clown shoe or nose fits, don it
     The avant guarde says ~ Give us plebians

When I close my eyes
This world melts away
Revealing to my surprise
The world I left astray
A low lit room
Watching a stage
A rocking tune
And comedic craze
The smell of cuisine
Italian of the sort
Croissants in between
This I report
Cool, crisp air
Pure to my skin
It is my happy place
I want to come again...

Nothing to say
do beyond robotic routines
…beyond eluding erosion

Something to say
do beyond repetitive rituals
…beyond evading entropy

Nowhere to go
hide behind cacophonous clowns
…behind vehement vaudevillians

Somewhere to go
hurtle beyond comedic ciphers
…beyond vindictive vipers

Nothing
Something
Nowhere 
Somewhere…
is
Everywhere...

My handsome, grandson, Eduardo, such a clown
Knows how to turn Grandma's ideas upside down.
When asked: "Sweetheart, can you feel yourself growing?"
His response: "Can you feel yourself shrinking", his comedic side showing!

In the city, in the dark,
Shakespeare thrives in Central Park.
Tix are given out for free,
By lining up or lottery.

Noises sometimes interfere
But all your problems disappear
When roles, comedic and/or tragic,
Are performed as if by magic.

Every time I get to go
I marvel at my luck, although
The opportunity is there
For all with time and pluck to spare....

She’s known as the Queen of Poop poems, funny and bold
And reading her humorous poems never ever gets old
Her poems brighten my days and make me laugh out loud
With her writing skills and comedic talent, she should feel proud

I hear in the Ukraine
there's a comedian
with no prior political experience
who has become their new President.

I wonder
they did not hear
we tried this model in the U.S.
a couple years ago

With predictable tragic/comedic results
not the least bit friendly
to public multicultural health
sold out
to support feudal monoculturing wealth
of not so funny kleptocrats....
