A Liverpool Comedian

The man who came into the bar had
a bandaged hand and wore a smug smile
as he ordered a pint of mild.
The news told of a suitcase found
at the bus stop, it was empty safe for a thumb,
the police was looking for the body it belonged to.
The man with the bandaged hand,
laughed loudly, but stopped when people starred,
had to keep this joke to himself, last
time a he shared a joke with friends
was when he cut his big toe off and put it in
the hand-wash at the ladies loo,
when he had finished telling the story his mates
had disappeared.
