A Sonnet for Comedy

[jaymanthegreat 188]

Oh let all my heart cry out "Bang! Bang!"

The lyric of comedy's hallowed song,

And may all ears accept that I have sang,

Throats in gloried harmony sing along.

May all who join in souls be uplifted,

Filled with mirth, with laughter, and with life,

And for all those who do not, you'll be gifted

With a visit from orphan Fourvel's knife.

O I shall make the world sing if I can,

For I am comedy's Hot Saucerman.
