How You Laugh

Till your face hurts, Stomach crunches, burns and you tinkle some.

You laugh like each giggle gets you high

Yeah, you laugh with the spirit of ecstasy

Laughing with the guilty pleasure

You laugh so sinfully hard

Like you know you’re going to hell

Tell them a killer joke sent you

You laugh with reluctance

Involuntarily through discontent

You laugh through pain through sorrow

Because misery can not have you yet

You laugh like a hearty laugh is the last drop from the fountain of youth left

Oh your laugh

You laugh like you don't need to breathe

In between the “ki ki ki’

Your laugh makes hyenas laugh

Makes donkeys kick the diaphragm

With punchline and commonality

Abusing comedic Ven diagrams

You laugh so

Till your face hurts

Stomach crunches, burns and you tinkle some

Eyes flooding joyously

Chest pains follow accordingly you laugh laugh

Laughing last is nice but ooooo how good it feels to be first

Children laugh and hold me, hostage, in the moment

Elders laugh as my test of time and omen

The homies laugh in the hunt for currency and food

I laugh I’m feeling moved

Laughing like it soothes

Laughing at you and all of the above

Even when I “tee hee hee”

I live

I laugh

I love
