Suicide Of The Nurse



Most like laughing at a butt
But find it not so funny
With themselves as butts.

You can find in Sydney
A bloke from Ironbark
Put paid to barber's pranks with fists
And ruin fun for all.

But a nurse of Kate in London
Who couldn't bear the radio jokes
Had to go one better
Become the one in a million
To ruin fun for all
By going and ending it all.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Some people, like this nurse, are exceptionally sensitive to jokes about appearance profile. Suicide becomes an option.
