Joking
You told me
Laughing
The other day
That sometimes
You can’t tell
Whether I’m serious
Or just joking
And while that
Sort of ruins
The point of a joke
Because it was
A joke after all
Maybe
It’s true
I mean, I’ve managed
God knows how
To convince you
That I’m some
Mysterious enigma
When actually
I’m really rather
Ordinary
