Sense Sonnet - Tickler

 Rotten

A new stand up comic showed up,

An orange with juicy jokes to tell.

The audience seemed doubtful, yup,

That this orange could joke very well.

But the orange, a determined fruit,

Was sure pulp full of confidence

In the getting some laugh pursuit.

So the comedy did commence.

The first joke of the orange revealed

That laughter might be hard to find.

What happened when this orange was peeled/"

"I went crazy and lost my rind."

"We citrus are a funny folk"

"Orange you glad that I told that joke?"
