World's First Joke


 
There was silence when I’d finished.

Imagine, the cave full of smoke

from Boglog Junior’s last attempt

to invent what he had termed ‘fire’.

 

His blackened bones lay strewn about

among the steaming turds and dust

mixed with titbits of mammoth fat,

which smelt exceptionally good.

 

Old Chief Boglog stared into space.

Eyes followed his hand as it tapped

his man-club (an ominous sound).

At last he grunted: “I get it!”
