The Comedian

'You know how I feel these days'
He said to the Comedian
They sat on the cliff
And he wanted to jump off it

The comedian gave him consolation
'There, there it'd be better'
He took a pebble from his feet
and threw it over the edge

'I think I will stay here'
He told the comedian again
'Its safe although its dangerous'
The comedian cracked a joke for him

'You scare me sometimes, why?'
The comedian said he need not worry
There was nothing to be afraid of
He said he was mostly harmless

She called the comedian afar
He turned to listen to her
And accidentally knocked the other guy
And watched him fall over the cliff

'Are you alright?' he asked
As his gaze followed him
The comedian thought of a punchline
'Oh well, no blood on my hands'
