Laughter Is Bitter (Poem)

laughter is bitter

when you know the right questions

only after the fact

the trips made the operations performed

everything proclaimed a shining success

laughter is bitter

when returned at home

you struggle to find your way

life harder now than even before

laughter is bitter

let others go about their lives

they see what they want

this is nothing new

laughter is bitter

I’ve always known

and so I offer you honey

when I pour you a cup of tea
