“leave ‘em laughing when you go”^ it appears that Ogden Poet and Joni Songster have ganged up on poor Pitch Black to remind that he who laughs best, is he who laugh hardest at himself, and their vanity fair the bathroom mirror chips in with a chiding chortle, spasming him so hard, mirror cracks! right about where the smiling mouth and laughing rolling tears intersect, under the nose, landing in an open braying mouth “Laughter is the corrective force which prevents us from becoming cranks” just a most excellent reminder that gods come and go, taste in deities is just another fashion item*
