It ain't funny no more (A poem)

You told me darling
that I’ve changed
unkept
distant
I’ve become
you said , really I should read more
to keep abreast
of current affairs
to acquire taste
be refine, urbane

While we walked home
(after you signed the autographs)
from the comedy club at the street’s end
you talked

All night I’ve watched you
from my lonely nook
You in the spotlight
You and your jokes
making them laugh
working the crowd
(your words)

It is the sense of humour
in a man , that’s important the most
So you told
I should be
Happy (me lucky)
For I ‘ve got it all

Now listen honey
there is this thing
the joke is ,
Charlie
I don’t think
you are funny
anymore
