He was not like other boys,
He was quiet and he was slow.
He was the child and boy,
No one wished to know.
He was bullied and he was beaten,
He was told that he was a fool.
Words could never hurt the man,
He was strong and that was the plan.
Out of the sadness and the pain,
He learned to be strong once again.
He saw the humor in life and laughter,
He was bold, brash and he was the Joker.
With his sharp wit and his sharper tongue,
His courage was always and forever sung.
He made many enemies in his time,
Being honest with humor was his crime.
He was known as the Joker far and wide,
From his sarcasm no one could hide.
He knew no anger and he knew no fear,
He was the indestructible Joker.
