April fools day

Jester jokes,
laughs
not fair to play on people's emotions like that
I say, full of righteousness
only causing him to laugh harder
not fair, I repeat
voice shaken
not so sure of myself now
jester smirks
loosen up
live a little
a joke's a joke's a joke
not so
I say
not funny when you hurt the ones you love
not funny when the joke's directed at you,
about you,
of you
not funny
not
funny—
all the while
I'm trying
trying to hide
the smile forming on my lips
