Please, Think

"Fuck"
She says
He says
They say

We laugh
"Ha ha
They said
The f-word
On stage
In front
Of a couple
Hundred people"

If you
Think
About it

It's not
That funny

Everyone's
Said it

It's crude
Degrading
Sexual

Those things
Are funny?

I should
Hope not

I'm not saying
We shouldn't
Laugh

Laughing's
Fun
Healthy

But maybe
We should
Think about
What we're
Laughing at

Just like
When people
Laugh at
Penis

It's really
Not that funny
Or mature

So

Please

Think

Act

Respond
