All over town
billboards
PUT ON A HAPPY FACE!
is this for cosmetics?
Surgery?
Go on vacation?
No
just
some random person
who
wants
people
to
be happy
To
smile
To
be
jolly
As if
life
is not full of potholes
pitfalls
tragedy
and
loss
(or notwithstanding all that)
Came to find
out
it
was
me
Came to realize
I
did
that
I did!
When confronted
by
hoards
of
reporters
and
the
curious
I
stammered
“Well it’s
wishful thinking!”
Only
to
have the Mayor
give me
a medal
the
school board President
sing
my praises
to all the parents
and
now
I
am
invited to the White House!
Damn
I
finally
got
it
right
